Apart from this our Group has contributed US $ 750,000/-(Rs.35 million) to help Habitat build 1,550 houses across India. In Thailand as well, we feel that we need to work for housing the underprivileged.
Our vision is to make a qualitative difference to the lives of the underprivileged through housing and vocational training programmes. While we will work with Habitat to build decent and affordable houses for people, we are also setting up the Aditya Birla Knowledge Centre in Saraburi, Thailand”.
