Sarantis Group and the Greek supermarket chain My market, building on their successful collaboration over the past two years, are continuing their joint Corporate Social Responsibility Initiative “PassPantou – Skills for Wheels” for the third consecutive year. This initiative aims to enhance the independence and autonomy of individuals with mobility impairments through experiential education and the development of practical skills.
The initiative continues this year with a focus not only on accessibility but also on the power of independence. Since last year, the collaboration has been strengthened by the significant support of Paralympian Maki Kalara and the RUSH OUT organization, who have committed to offering their expertise and knowledge in educating individuals with mobility impairments.
The funding for the program provided by the Sarantis Group and My market will enable the training of 10 individuals in daily self-care practices, with guidance from Makis Kalaras and his specialized team. The program supports these individuals in their efforts to live an independent and autonomous life, reducing the barriers they face in their daily routines.
Consumer participation is also crucial to the success of this initiative. By purchasing products from the Sarantis Group at My market stores, consumers directly contribute to the program, as a portion of the proceeds will be allocated to the training of people with mobility impairments, providing them with the tools for a more independent daily life.
The collaboration between Sarantis Group, My market, Makis Kalaras and the RUSH OUT organization strengthens their commitment to providing meaningful support and improving the quality of life for people with disabilities, offering not just assistance, but the necessary tools for empowerment and independence.
