In Their Words: What Our CSR Partners Verified on the Ground

Testimonial · Corporate partners

Anyone can describe their own work. We would rather you hear it from the people who funded it and walked the ground.

In short

TREEI's CSR partners include Netcracker Technology, Imerys, Artemyn India and Calderys. Their leaders, quoted here by name and with consent, describe Mission URJA as reaching places electricity had never reached, and TREEI's model as grounded, replicable and built to last.

Abhijit Patil, India Admin Director, Netcracker Technology

“Mission URJA brought electricity to places it had never reached, a historic milestone. The grassroots impact of TREEI is not only deep but also built to last.”

Abhijit Patil · India Admin Director, Netcracker Technology

What did Netcracker see on the ground?

Netcracker Technology has backed Mission URJA in both its editions. Its leadership has visited the work in person, from interactions in the villages to a site visit on the fort, where Mission URJA lights now run alongside Tikona's QR-code audio history, another project Netcracker supported. Abhijit Patil's words above come from that first-hand view: power that reached places it had never reached, and a model designed to keep it there.

Why do we publish partner voices by name?

A testimonial without a name is an advertisement. Every partner voice on treei.org carries a real name, designation and organisation, and is published with consent. For CSR teams doing due diligence, that is the point: you can check who said it.

Partners also get what they need to verify impact themselves: a formal MoU with an itemised budget and milestones, field reports and photos, fund-utilisation statements, and a live dashboard view of their villages or forts.

Leading CSR at your company?Every TREEI programme maps to Schedule VII and comes as a defined outcome with an MoU and a live dashboard.
