'ShikshaHarHaath' initiative
In January 2021, Mi India collaborated with actor Sonu Sood to launch the 'ShikshaHarHaath' initiative. Financial Express reported that the brand plans to empower thousands of students across the country by donating Redmi smartphones.
The initiative also allows people to be a part of bettering a child's future by donating their smartphones which are in working condition at the Mi Centres. These second-hand phones would then be refurbished before they are donated. A microsite has been launched so that the consumers can pledge their smartphones.
