Games24x7 Foundation, a not-for-profit arm of Games24x7, an online skill-gaming platform, has announced expansion of its flagship program, ‘Wheels of Change’, by offering children an opportunity to witness a cricket match.
As part of this initiative, the Games24x7 Foundation, under its Wheels of Change initiative, is expected to engage with NGOs and sports academies across six Indian cities to offer experiences for youth and athletes from underserved backgrounds. Throughout the TATA IPL, over 60 young students from NGOs and academies, including Hope Kolkata Foundation, Academy of Pathans in Lucknow, Aravalli Cricket Academy in Jaipur, JCH Cricket Academy in Ahmedabad, Victory Sports Foundation in Chennai, and the Sports Coaching Foundation in Hyderabad are believed will experience a live TATA IPL T20 cricket match.
“I believe Games24x7 Foundation is focused on driving interventions to empower the country’s youth by providing them with resources and opportunities they need to succeed. We believe that this wouldn’t just be an experience, but one that fosters a sense of possibility in the children who witness their heroes in action during the match,” Bhavin Pandya, co-founder and co-CEO, Games24x7, said.
