LANXESS supports education for underprivileged children

LANXESS arranged an educational programme for the students of the organization Save the Children India (STCI), whom LANXESS has supported in the past as well. Around 50 students from Standard 5, 6 and 7 from the study centers of STCI were accompanied to the Nehru Science Centre situated in Worli, Mumbai on April 19, 2011. This visit aimed at exposing the children to various laws of science in a fun and interactive manner outside of the classroom. The visit included three different shows and a tour around the science center.

In 2010, LANXESS India supported the Child Welfare and Education Project in Mumbai by collaborating with Save the Children India that aims to help slum children complete their pre-primary education. LANXESS made a donation to STCI to cover the education-related expenses of five pre-primary schools (called ’balwadis’) under its care. LANXESS also donated water purifiers to the ’balwadis’ that it supports and as a small contribution to school sports, donated two footballs to each balwadi. Each balwadi accommodates about 20 to 25 students in a single shift.

In 2010, LANXESS India also donated a school van to the NGO in Mumbai. STCI has deployed the buses as means of transport for slum dwelling children to go to STCI schools on a daily basis.
