The Chetu Foundation and Chetu Team Members Donate 146 Food Staples and $1,510 to Help ‘Feeding South Florida’ Provide for 700,000 People During the Holiday Season

Sunrise, Fla. (Nov. 15, 2023) – The Chetu Foundation, the non-profit charitable arm of Chetu, a global software solutions and support services provider, urged everyone to celebrate the meaning of National Philanthropy Day on Nov. 15.

The Chetu Thanksgiving Food Drive collected 146 food items and raised $1,510.

To support National Philanthropy Day, the Chetu Foundation and Chetu team members recently donated 146 food staples and $1,510 to Feeding South Florida, which provides food to 700,000 food-insecure men, women, and children living in Broward, Palm Beach, Miami-Dade, and Monroe counties.

“There are many ways of giving,” said Atal Bansal, founder and CEO of Chetu and the Chetu Foundation. “You can donate, volunteer, or give a shoutout on social media about your favorite charity on National Philanthropy Day, which reminds us that we need to remember the less fortunate in our communities.”

“We are proud to be a community partner with Feeding South Florida,” Bansal added. “For every food item donated, the Chetu Foundation contributed $5 and matched the financial donations. We are proud that our Team Members have donated needed food and given so generously to help people this holiday season.”

The Chetu Foundation highlights the importance of Corporate Social Responsibility and helps empower people through technology education, give back to communities, create and sustain change, and improve the quality of life. The four key areas for the Foundation are:

• Disaster Recovery

• Education

• Health

• Humanitarian Assistance

The Foundation has contributed to communities worldwide, in Broward County, where Chetu’s headquarters is located, and in India, where Chetu has multiple locations for operations and a skill development center.

Here are some of the areas in which the Foundation has given back to communities:

• donated $103,085 in furniture and office supplies to Broward County Public Schools

• $100,000 donation to the Joe DiMaggio Children’s Hospital Foundation to name a state-of-the-art sensory room and assist children with special needs
