The brand aims at empowering underprivileged children through science education!
Gurugram- 13th April 2022- The Derma Co, a science-based skincare brand, announced ‘Young Scientists’ in collaboration with Bhumi NGO (https://bhumi.ngo) which works on tackling complex challenges facing children in disadvantaged communities through the transformative power of education. With a commitment to empowering underprivileged children through science experiential learning, the brand will link every order made on www.thedermaco.com, to a child who will benefit via science experiential learning.
Founded on the fundamentals of the science of skincare using active ingredients, The Derma Co., believes in the power of science and has committed to empowering and educating deserving underprivileged children with science experiential learnings. In collaboration with Bhumi NGO, the aim is to make practical hands-on science education accessible to urban, semi-urban, and rural government schools & to transform the thinking of children through DIY experiments covering different concepts of science and providing science experiential learning.
While India has made great strides in improving access to education, quality education for underprivileged children is yet to be achieved. With this objective in mind, The Derma Co is looking toward setting a new benchmark for providing access to quality education in the field of science. Once an order is placed on the website, the brand commences the process towards funding a child’s education and supports more children having access to practical science. Customers can visit https://thedermaco.com/educate and enter their order id in the box provided on the page and see the details of the child towards whose education the customer has contributed by ordering from The Derma Co website.
Commenting on the initiative, Ghazal Alagh, Co-Founder & Chief Innovation Officer, Honasa Consumer Private Limited said, “When we launched HONASA, we were committed to serving a greater purpose with every brand we launch. Being a science-based brand, we were certain that when we launch the purpose for The Derma Co., it would be serving a greater objective with science. Understanding science in the fundamental development of children’s future, we are launching our purpose ‘Young Scientists’, where we will provide science experiential learning to children. We have collaborated with Bhumi NGO to help us through this purpose. ‘Young Scientists’ is a dream to provide quality education to millions of deserving children, and we hope that our consumers join hands with us in this quest.”
Commenting on the initiative, Sridevi Mogilineedi, Program Director, Bhumi NGO said, – “We feel that science education is crucial at a young age and should be included in the curriculum. We are glad that The Derma Co. has come forward to support this critical aspect of education. This collaboration will further support us in our effort to deliver high-quality education to children across the country and to contribute to a world where children from economically weaker sections do not have to miss out on opportunities due to cost or accessibility difficulties.”
