15HealtH Camp

L&Tites celebrated the 106th Birth Anniversary of Holck - Larsen by initiating several community welfare programmesSeven decades ago, Hol-ck-Larsen turned east from Denmark and shared a dream with India and her people. Larsen & Toubro Limited is the resplend-ent manifestation of that dream.

Holck - Larsen was unique. He did not teach, he touched and transformed. He did not instruct, he in-spired. He did not plot the way forward, he helped discover within ourselves the strength to find the path. Henning Holck-Larsen will live on in the legacy of the organization that bears his name. In our products, in our projects and indeed, in everything we do, as we continue to make the things that make India proud.

In line with HHL’s words ‘In service lies success’, L&T Construction’s sites and offices organized vari-ous events to reach out and serve the needy. Blood donation camps, sapling plantation initiatives, health camps for the work-men and rural commu-nity, distribution of books and educational material for the underprivileged children etc. were some of the initiatives taken by L&Tites. On 4th July, L&Tites proudly donat-ed 1430 units of blood, planted over 500 saplings and addressed the health issues of more than 3000 people.
