Bata, in collaboration with UCEP Bangladesh, has started a donation programme recently.
Under the programme, every time a pair is sold above a certain value at any Bata store in October, Bata will donate towards a meal for underprivileged children of the country, says a media release.
Iftekhar Mallick, Head of Marketing of Bata Bangladesh, said, “We always feel committed to the society and during the pandemic we’re putting all our efforts to support the underprivileged people.”
“We hope our initiatives will encourage others as well to come forward,” he said.
Established in 1972, UCEP Bangladesh works to raise the dignity and socioeconomic conditions of children and youth, especially from poor and underprivileged families, including Child Labor, Persons with Disabilities (PWD), Ethnic minorities, and other marginalised groups.
