First Anniversary of Uflex Khelo Dilli 2011-12
held
- Uflex
Khelo Dilli witnesses participation of more than 5000 children across
Delhi
- 28
Uflex Stairs centres established for children to play everyday
- Annual
sporting event to be taken to other parts of the country
New
Delhi, 29th April, 2012: The first anniversary of
maiden edition of Uflex Khelo Dilli 2011-12, a philanthropic endeavor jointly
undertaken by Stairs, an NGO working towards sports, education and health of
underprivileged children and Uflex Ltd., India’s largest flexible
packaging company, was today held at Ludlow Castle Sports Complex. Mr. Ashok
Chaturvedi, CMD, Uflex Ltd. along with Mr. Anil Upadhyay, President, Stairs, presided
over the occasion.
Uflex Khelo Dilli was conceptualized with the aim to
provide free of cost - space, infrastructure and sports equipment to the less
fortunate children of our society, to play.
The first edition of Uflex Khelo Dilli has already
witnessed participation of more than 5000 children. These children are regulary
playing at 28 Uflex Stairs centres which have been established near the
colonies where these children reside. In the last one year, these centres have emerged
as a hub of recreation for children from low economic background and ignited
passion for playing in others as evident from increasing number of children
getting enroled at these centres.
As Uflex Khelo
Dilli enters into second year, Stairs is now planning to take this initiative
to other parts of the country and encourage more children to come out and just
play.
Commenting on the occasion, Mr. Ashok Chaturvedi, CMD,
Uflex Ltd., said, “We are pleased to be associated with a noble cause of
helping underprivileged children in achieving their dreams through the medium
of sports. Besides being a recreational activity, sport has an educative
character which can help in building a strong character and help in social
integration of underprivileged youth. These children have a lot of potential and
latent energy that needs to be tapped and through Uflex Khelo Dilli, we hope to
channelize this energy in the right direction. Our association with Stairs
represents an extension of our social commitment to bring about a positive
change in the life of underprivileged sections of the society by carrying out
such programmes in sport, education and health.”
“The fact that young children should be given an
opportunity to simply come out and play and enjoy themselves, urged us to
undertake this initiative. We amalgamated it with our noble cause to train
underprivileged children who are blessed with talent but do not have the
opportunity or platform to nurture it. We encouraged these children to take
some time out and join in the games that would help them build a strong
character through sports. I would also take this opportunity to thank Uflex for
their valuable association and would like to look forward for a longstanding
relation with the Uflex team”, says Mr. Anil Upadhyay, President, Stairs.
Apart
from Khelo Dilli, Uflex Ltd. has also adopted cricket initiatives of Stairs,
namely, Uflex Stairs Cricket Championship and Uflex Stairs Cricket Scholarship.
Uflex Ltd. supports Stairs in running cricket training academies, providing sports
scholarship and sports gear to the underprivileged children. Recently, 64 talented
children have been granted the Uflex Stairs Cricket Scholarship and are being
training at accredited cricket centres in Delhi.
Since its inception in 2005, Stairs has been actively
involved in the upliftment of the less fortunate children mainly through the
field of sports. The sporting initiatives undertaken by Stairs are aimed at
providing a platform to these children to hone their skills and showcase their
talent through sports camps. Stairs understands the amount of talent that

their talent is rightly tapped and nurtured. Talented children are chosen from
these camps and provided coaching, sports scholarship and sports gear.

Philosophy
The most important word in the vocabulary of any industry is consumer. With more and more products being introduced in the market the competition in the packaging industry has also become fierce as they are expected to come up with innovative packaging techniques keeping into consideration the evolving customer needs. Consumers can’t be asked to make sacrifices; they are the kings, it is the responsibility of the industry to live up to their mounting demands. With the changing trends customers have now become more responsible and compassionate towards environment. At Uflex it is clearly understood if success is desired they will produce what the customers want. It is the obligation of every company to give back something worthwhile to the community it operates in. This is the very essence of undertaking corporate social responsibility and is mandatory for any existing company because it not only builds reputation but also establishes the credibility and authenticity of the company among the consumers. Consumers anticipate environmentally responsible companies and Uflex delivers this promise.
