Meer Foundation is a non-profit organization, and Shah Rukh Khan has been active in lending his support to the NGO. For his work, he was honored with the Crystal Award at the World Economic Forum 2018, held in Davos.
Talking about the Foundation, the actor said, “The work done at Meer Foundation is very close to my heart and we have been working on it with a quiet focus since the past three years. Meer supports victims of acid attacks by providing a holistic approach to their rehabilitation.”
“With this in mind, we launched our new initiative ToGETher Transformed and I am thankful to our partners across the country – our brave survivors, doctors, lawyers, hospitals, NGOs and volunteers who help us in our cause. I hope to garner more support for our endeavors by bringing together like-minded people and hopefully put an end to acid violence in the near future,” he added
The not-for-profit in addition has also helped organize health camps, donate wheelchairs to para-athletes, organised events for disadvantaged women and children and contributed to victims of Kerala floods.
