Bangalore, 12th June 2014: Pegasystems Worldwide India (Pvt) Limited today initiated an infrastructure enhancement drive under which the company undertook book donation & restoration activity at Doopanhalli Municipal school in Bangalore. The drive is aimed at equipping the school with basic facilities such as a proper classroom and library which will make it motivating for kids to go to school and study. This will benefit 100+ children studying in the school currently.

The initiative was conducted as part of ‘Prayas’ – A Pegasystems India initiative to give back to the society/ Pegasystems’ Corporate Social Responsibility Initiative; which has taken up underprivileged children as one of the focus area for this year.

While mostly corporates are usually seen to be taking up one-off activities as part of their CSR initiatives, Pegasystems’ ‘Prayas’ team consisting of Pega employees take up a cause and works relentlessly towards championing the same throughout the year.
