Manubhai Jewellers Champions Mobility Aid Initiative to Empower Differently-Abled Individuals

Manubhai Jewellers has reaffirmed its commitment to social responsibility by supporting the Empowering Wheels, Empowering Lives initiative, in partnership with the Rotary Club. The initiative focused on providing mobility aids to differently-abled individuals, with the aim of restoring not just physical movement, but a sense of freedom, independence, and personal dignity to those affected by accidents or medical conditions.
The jewellery brand’s involvement stemmed from a desire to solve real-world challenges through compassionate action. The initiative demonstrated how businesses can move beyond commercial interests to address practical issues faced by members of the community. Through this programme, five individuals with severe mobility challenges were identified by the Rotary Club. Each recipient had a unique story of resilience, and Manubhai Jewellers stepped in to support their journey by donating specially built electric scooters, tailored to the needs of differently-abled users.

Samir Sagar, Director of Manubhai Jewellers, elaborated on the brand’s vision behind this heartfelt contribution:
“Honestly, it started with a simple thought that we meet and serve hundreds of people every week, and somewhere we’ve seen first-hand how tough life can get when mobility is lost. When the Rotary Club reached out with this idea, it just felt right. Giving someone the freedom to move on their own.”
The event took place as part of a larger local initiative organized by the Rotary Club, and included a formal stage ceremony where the five recipients were introduced and publicly presented with their mobility aids. The occasion brought together local stakeholders, creating a collective moment of support and solidarity. It also highlighted how collaboration between civic bodies and businesses can result in meaningful, on-the-ground change in the lives of everyday citizens.
Speaking further on the company’s larger purpose, Sagar said:
“For us, it’s always been about celebrating strength, be it through jewellery that marks a milestone, or through initiatives like this that restore someone’s independence.”
While the brand emphasized that the initiative was not designed for commercial promotion, it naturally led to greater awareness and appreciation within the local community.
“We didn’t really do it expecting attention or engagement,” Sagar explained. “However, such initiatives always manage to generate an overall feeling of community building.”
As Manubhai Jewellers continues its evolution from an owner-managed entity to a professionally-run organisation, the company has broadened its vision to include a deeper sense of responsibility towards the wider society. The brand’s support for this initiative aligns with its growing CSR roadmap, which seeks to integrate empathy, accessibility, and empowerment into its business ethos.
Looking ahead, Manubhai Jewellers is planning to participate in more such community-driven efforts, with the focus firmly on creating practical solutions for those who need them most. The five individuals selected for this project were chosen by the Rotary Club based on their specific needs and aspirations. Each case reflected the determination of individuals who wished to remain active contributors to society but were hindered by physical limitations.
Established in 1993 as a jewellery manufacturing and wholesale venture in Gujarat, Manubhai Jewellers opened its first independent retail showroom in Borivali West, Mumbai, in 2008. Today, the brand operates three showrooms—two in Borivali and one in Thane—continuing to blend tradition with a strong sense of social purpose.
