NASSCOM Foundation celebrates World Environment Day

CEOs from IT-BPO companies proved to be an inspiration to young professionals by planting a sapling at the Don Bosco Night Shelter Home for Boys, Okhla, each along with the children. Those present included Som Mittal, President, NASSCOM and Trustee, NASSCOM Foundation; Sudip Nandy, CEO, Aricent; Diwakar Nigam, CEO, Newgen; T.K. Mangalam, Senior

Sharma, Founder, Until ROI and Simi Suri, HCL CSR Lead.

Sagarika Bose, Vice President- Research, NASSCOM Foundation said, "Kids and plant saplings are so much alike; when you are with them age, designations and status cease to matter. Both need tender loving care and everyone just gets down to their level and joins in the fun. This was the case with the CEOs, CIOs and location heads from participating companies who came to the WED2010 celebrations organized by NASSCOM Foundation. Adults and children alike had an innocent and yet gleeful expression on their faces while their hands were stuck in mud."

As responsible citizens of the country the CEOs have taken it upon themselves to set an example for all employees by taking the first step in ensuring a greener environment and a brighter future.
