Kirloskar Pneumatic Company Limited (KPCL), a leading name in compressed air-conditioning, refrigeration and hydraulic power transmission, announced scholarship program for underprivileged children. Students from twelve schools in Pune district will benefit from this program.

KPCL during its 8th Annual Felicitation Program held recently, announced the scholarship program to further give impetus to company’s principle of assisting and motivating children from underprivileged background to get access to education.

In the last eight years, KPCL under its corporate social responsibilities (CSR)  initiatives have extended support to children from secondary schools by designing programs for orphan, single parent and economically challenged children.

The scholarship covers the costs of tuition fees and books. For the first year, 40 children selected on merit basis from 12 schools across Pune district will be awarded the scholarship.

Our constant endeavor has been to provide education to the underprivileged which would play vital a part in the upliftment of the society. I am confident that the scholarship will not only benefit the children to gain access to education and knowledge but help to become financial independent in the future adding to the overall development of our country.”
