Subway Country Director South Asia, Mr Ranjit Talwar handed over the contribution cheque to Ms P. Nagasayee Malathy, Executive Director, Kailash Satyarthi Children’s Foundation, here today.
Subway® restaurants around the world celebrate the World Sandwich Day every year by partnering with leading charity organizations. In India, Subway® has partnered KSCF, a country-wide organisation, dedicated to the welfare of children and headed by the Nobel Peace Laureate, Mr Kailash Satyarthi.
Subway® India kicked-off the World Sandwich Day 2018 festivities by inviting Nobel Peace Laureate Mr. Kailash Satyarthi to create a sandwich recipe blending the best of nutrition and taste, keeping in mind the choices of children. Further, on November 2, 2018 Subway® India ran a ‘Buy One Get One’ offer for guests across the 600-plus Subway® restaurants across the country. On that day, for every guest order Subway India contributed a dedicated amount to the KSCF fund for the well-being of children.
“As we conclude our second year of association with KSCF, we feel humbled by the difference this collaboration is making to a significant number of underprivileged children in India,” said Mr Ranjit Talwar Country Director, South Asia Subway®. With more than 44,000 Subway® restaurants around the globe, the potential for working towards eradication of hunger and malnutrition is huge, he added.
Subway® offers a fresh alternative to traditional fast food, serving 7 million made-to-order sandwiches a day. Guests choose from 37 million combinations of quality proteins, fresh vegetables, and bread baked daily.
