Vivek Oberoi to donate 10,000 face masks to traffic cops


Actor and philanthropist Vivek Oberoi has always been at the forefront of noble causes and has contributed to the society in his own ways.
 
The large-hearted actor who serves as the anti-tobacco spokesperson for World Health Organization and also associated with Cancer Patients Aid Association (CPAA) for more than a decade has come up with a social awareness campaign – Hawa Badlo – a short film that highlights the issue of air pollution in collaboration with ONE foundation and GAIL (Gas Authority of India Limited).
 
To drive the message home, Vivek’s ONE foundation has come up with a hard-hitting video that makes you question your conduct towards traffic cops.
 
The actor will give away 10,000 anti-pollution face masks for the traffic cops. Vivek says, “Salute to the traffic cops who put their health at risk for our safety. It’s a small initiative. I would request people to come forward and support the cause – Hawa Badlo.”

“Air Pollution has proved to be a growing menace in the last few years. Rising cases of respiratory diseases has made it imperative that we choose a corrective path towards the future. Our daily choices affect the course of our tomorrow and switching to cleaner fuels like natural gas should be our first step towards changing the air. GAIL (India) Limited is glad to partner this much needed cause with Hawa Badlo.” Shri B.C. Tripathi, Chairman & Managing Director, GAIL (India) Limited
