Corporate social responsibility program
Extentia has a social responsibility program, called Sakaar. Sakaar is an entirely voluntary organization.
The name Sakaar is derived from the Hindi to ‘realize, fulfill or achieve’.
The program aims to create social awareness and to help the underprivileged in Pune, India, and to provide support to charitable institutions in Pune.
The first program initiated by Sakaar on 31st December 2001 was a food-donation drive at the Mother Teresa Home, undertaken in collaboration with the Sadhu Vaswani Mission.
The activities and archievements the Sakaar Team has made so far make this program well known in Pune.
These ongoing activities comprehend:
* Sakaar regularly assists the National Association for the Blind (NAB), a home for the aging blind, by ordering a number of items made by the NAB residents.
* Sakaar has also garnered resources for the Wagholi Ashram which houses and educates over 350 abandoned and orphaned children, so that they receive their regular supplies of vegetables and milk on a sustained basis.
* In association with the Soroptimist International Club of Poona, Sakaar has sponsored the education for 6 girls under their "Girl Child Program".
* In recognition and support of World AIDS Day on December 1st, several Sakaar members took time to participate in the “Race against AIDS” - a charity run to spread social awareness about HIV/AIDS.
* Every Christmas, Sakaar volunteers go carol singing to old age homes like the Sandhya Old Age Home and the Isha Prema Ashram
