Disney India contributes Rs 2 crore for FANI-hit Odisha

New Delhi: Disney India today contributed Rs 2 crore to provide aid for recovery and restoration efforts in areas battered by the Cyclone FANI in Odisha.

The donation will support to those in need in the cyclone-hit State through Save the Children in India.

“Our hearts go out to those affected by this severe cyclonic storm Fani. The families and communities impacted by this devastating calamity need our support as they begin to rebuild,” Sanjay Gupta, Country Manager, Star and Disney India, said in a statement.

“Through our contribution, we hope to help the families affected as they recover from this cyclone,” Gupta added.

With the relief aid, Save the Children in India will provide shelter and basic needs to affected families. It will also work in cyclone shelters and temporary camps.

In August 2018, Disney and Star India came forward to extend support during Kerala floods, the release said.
