Creating Impact, One Life at a Time At The Social Lab, we believe that every life matters. Our commitment to road safety goes beyond just words—it’s about action. The Mumbai-Nashik Highway is a lifeline for countless travellers, but for too long, it’s been a road fraught with danger. The Social Lab in collaboration with Mahindra Group, decided it was time to take on the challenge of making this crucial highway safer for everyone. By initiating corrective measures along this critical stretch, we’ve been able to do something truly powerful: save lives. From engineering solutions to safety interventions, each step we’ve taken is one toward a safer future. The attached imagery to this post signifies the importance of a basic Road Safety effort: Attenuators- which help reduce the speed, helps the vehicle to keep its balance from overturning and most importantly saves lives. Behind every statistic is a person—a family—a story. And with every life saved, our belief reaffirms that impact matters—because no journey should end in tragedy. Because road safety isn't just about roads—it’s about people. It’s about the families, the drivers, the passengers who deserve to return home safely. Together, we are creating a future where every journey on this highway ends in hope, not heartbreak. Our work continues, and so does our resolve. Because one life saved is worth every effort To the countless drivers, passengers, and families on this vital route, we’re with you. And we won’t stop until every life is protected. Here’s to a safer, better tomorrow. Apoorva S.

October 6th was a landmark day for PepsiCo India as we hosted Plog Run 2024, exemplifying our commitment to the ‘Partnership of Progress.’ By coming together in collective action, we’re not just promoting sustainability but embedding it into our operations and culture.   I was proud to join my wife and nearly 500 participants, including employees, students, volunteers, partners, and local authorities. The atmosphere buzzed with positivity and energy as we kicked off the run with CultFit’s warm-up session, followed by an exciting football match on the Gatorade Turf that fostered camaraderie among participants. A highlight though was to hear from Paralympians Akhlesh Kumar and Parveen Kumar, whose inspiring stories fueled the day’s enthusiasm and determination.   In collaboration with The Social Lab and local partners, this year we have completed four successful Plog Runs across key cities in Punjab, Haryana, Uttar Pradesh, and Maharashtra. Best wishes to the teams for the upcoming runs in Assam and West Bengal. My thanks to our partners— VARUN BEVERAGES LIMITED, Curefit - house of cult, Decathlon Sports India, Marengo Asia Hospitals, Edelman, Gatorade, Quaker, The Wine Company—and our plant teams in Kosi, Channo, and Pune, as well as the local authorities for their support.   A special thank you to the backbone of PepsiCo India—our people—who worked tirelessly to make Plog Run 2024 a resounding success. They brought together partners, sponsors, volunteers, and community members to run for a healthier, greener future.   The Plog Run is more than an annual event; it’s a testament to our belief that Together We Win as we strive to perform with purpose.   #PlogRun2024 #Sustainability #SwachhBharat #PepsiCoIndia #GreenFuture

Can you imagine working under the scorching sun all day without access to clean drinking water? Leave aside working, even if we get out in the open for 10 minutes, we crib amongst each other about the heat. This is the harsh reality for many of our fellow Indians working in the construction industry and other outdoor jobs. As temperatures soar to a blistering 50 degrees, the need for accessible, clean drinking water becomes even more critical. Our hearts go out to the countless individuals struggling to access something as fundamental as clean drinking water. This extreme heat poses a severe threat to the health and well-being of underprivileged communities across India, who often bear the brunt of such harsh conditions. In response, The Social Lab is happy to collaborate with HSBC for an urgent initiative to install 20 Water Kiosks in areas where they were needed the most. These kiosks have provided life-saving hydration and have offered a small but essential relief from the relentless heat. Why This Matters: Life-Saving Hydration: Access to clean drinking water can prevent heat-related illnesses and save lives. Health and Well-being: With temperatures hitting record highs, staying hydrated is crucial for maintaining health and preventing heat strokes and dehydration. Empathy and Support: This initiative is a testament to our commitment to supporting the most vulnerable members of our society. It's about showing compassion and standing together in times of need. Our Commitment: Strategic Placement: Installing kiosks in the most affected areas to ensure maximum reach and impact. Quality Assurance: Providing safe, clean water that meets all health standards. Community Engagement: Working closely with local communities to maintain and support these kiosks, ensuring they serve those in need effectively. We believe that access to clean water is a basic human right, and in these extreme conditions, it becomes even more critical. Let's come together to make a difference. Share this post, spread the word, and support our mission to provide a lifeline to those who need it the most. Together, we can make this summer a little less harsh for our fellow Indians 🌟 #HumanityFirst #CSR #CommunitySupport #HeatwaveRelief #CleanWater #India2024 #WaterForAll #TogetherWeCan #CompassionInAction #BasicHumanRights Apoorva S.

In honour of the lives lost, TSL has committed to renew its commitment to road safety. We are striving to prevent further tragedies by promoting responsible driving and creating safer road environments for all. The Social Lab (TSL) is making efforts to join hands with the State Police Departments to deploy as many accident crash cushion barriers as possible. These barriers are designed to minimize the impact of collisions, protecting motorists and pedestrians alike. They not only save accidents but help reduce post-accident impact.

There are times when you feel proud of your work and you thank the forces for making you able enough to help others A big thank you to PepsiCo as This Eid, we embarked on a heartwarming social campaign in Bangladesh to spread joy and support underprivileged communities. With the spirit of giving and compassion at its core, our campaign aimed to make Eid special for those who are in need. Through our The Social Lab (TSL) family and volunteer network, we were able to distribute essential food items to families in need. The smiles and gratitude we received in return were truly priceless, reaffirming the impact of our collective efforts. This campaign was a testament to the power of unity and compassion. It showed that even the smallest acts of kindness can make a big difference in the lives of others. As we celebrate Eid, let us continue to support and uplift those around us, spreading love and kindness wherever we go. Together, we can create a brighter, more inclusive future for all. #EidCampaign #GivingBack #CommunitySupport Great Work Mohd Akif Siddiqui Nilesh Ekka, you have made us proud... Apoorva S.
