The Covid-19 pandemic has changed our life with an immediate effect. There is a vast difference between life before six months and now. Many people have lost their lives and jobs, with no certainty when this new normal will become a thing of the past. In these self-quarantining times, the real heroes are the doctors, police personnel, municipality employees who are exposed to this threat every day, and working day and night for the social well-being.
Corona Pandemic has adversely affected all our lives and the daily wage earners, people living below the line of poverty are worst hit. Muvi Foundation has been dedicatedly contributing towards society whenever and wherever there is a need. This is a time, we stand in solidarity with efforts made by our government, NGOs and many social workers worldwide. Without any donations or funding, Muvi Foundation has been continuously serving the mankind during this difficult hour. It is solely run on the fund from Muvi, software product development company in Bhubaneswar.
Muvi Foundation has donated Rs 1 lakhs towards the Prime Minister’s Citizen Assistance and Relief in Emergency Situations Fund (PM CARES Fund) and Chief Minister’s Relief Fund to fight against COVID-19 pandemic.
Muvi Foundation has always been dedicated to contributing towards society. We strongly believe women play an important role in the upbringing of our society. Empowerment of women is a necessity for the very development of a society, since it enhances both the quality and the quantity of human resources available for development.
We organized a Blood Donation Camp at our office premises in collaboration with Capital Hospital, Bhubaneswar. On our request, Capital hospital facilitated us with their blood collection bus. Muvians volunteered for this noble cause and participated in high numbers making the event a grand success.
Muvi Foundation started the year 2020 with Muvi Marathon organized in the lush green forests of Chandaka. Chandaka Sanctuary is known for its splendor and pristinely home to many species, particularly elephants. Spread over an area of 193.39 Sq.Km on the up land of North-Eastern Ghats of biotic region, Chandaka sanctuary is a treasure house of biodiversity. The park is known for successful conservation of elephants which is the principal species here. It is also a home to several threatened wild animals and birds.
Plantation Program – 10th August 2019
Cyclones are very common in Odisha. We are on an average hit by 2 cyclones annually. The last names Cyclone Fani caused us great loss. We were geographically hit at one of the populated districts of Odisha -Puri, famous for Lord Jagannatha Temple. We lost many souls (humans, animals, birds and trees). Cyclone Fani was a great set back for us, financially, economically, and socially. Huge number of trees were uprooted, broken and destroyed. The city looked mundane, devastated and lost.
Muvi Foundation, as part of its CSR initiatives, visited Jeevan Jyoti Ashram, a Khandagiri-based orphanage. This orphanage is home to many orphaned and rescued kids from the darker side of our society. It gave us immense pleasure for being able to bring a smile on these children face. There are around 140 kids from 3 years of age to 15 years of age.
It is said that the best time to plant a tree was 20 years ago, and the second-best time is now! – Muvi Foundation held a massive tree plantation drive on 18th August 2018 in the slums of Sikharchandi Nagar. Around 200+ saplings were planted along side the boundary of a local school in the slum.
What goes around comes around – and with kindness it really does.
Kindness can be as simple as a smile, a thank-you or a word of encouragement.
