Hero Group on Monday said that it is contributing ₹100 crore towards relief efforts for the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic. About half of this sum will be contributed to the PM-Cares Fund and the remaining will be spent on other relief efforts.

The Hero Group (BML Munjal family) companies contributing to this fund include Hero MotoCorp, Hero FinCorp, Hero Future Energies, Rockman Industries and Hero Electronix, it said in a statement.

“Our country, and indeed the entire world, is currently facing an unprecedented challenge in the form of Covid-19. In such critical times, it is of utmost importance and urgency that we all come together and support the marginalised sections of society, along with those who are in dire conditions,” Pawan Munjal, Chairman, Hero MotoCorp, said.

He said Hero MotoCorp will distribute masks, sanitisers, gloves and 100 ventilators to hospitals and health departments for necessary use.
