The Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) may be sitting on the edge of the bottom half of the table, much to the disappointment of the fans, but their spirit to help build a better society is as strong as ever. Recently, the team has taken a significant step in contributing towards better health standards for the underprivileged in the state of West Bengal. KKR has established ties with the Smile Foundation and the Meer Foundation for this cause.
One of the constant sides in the Indian Premier League (IPL) since its inception back in 2008, the KKR side has enjoyed immense support from their fans, especially the ones in their home state. In a heartfelt gesture towards the betterment of the needy in the state, this tie-up will promote and ensure the goodness of health amongst the poor and the underprivileged.
