Himalaya Babycare collaborates with UNICEF India
Mumbai: Himalaya BabyCare announced its collaboration with UNICEF to support the well-being of underprivileged children and mothers across India.
This partnership will advance the health and well-being of mothers and children, especially the most vulnerable and marginalized. The aim is to integrate Himalaya Baby Care’s commitment to nurturing little lives with UNICEF’s extensive experience in advocating for children’s rights. Together, they will promote a happy and healthy start for every child by providing them the care, support, and education necessary for a happy beginning.
Both organizations will promote mother care and childcare awareness and help elevate the well-being of families across India through advocacy campaigns and on-ground activations. Beyond resources and assistance, Himalaya BabyCare and UNICEF celebrated Mother’s Day and Breastfeeding Week with children and families, fostering community spirit and highlighting the importance of early and proper care for mothers and children. They will also celebrate Children’s Day with the communities, further strengthening their commitment to the well-being of mothers and children.
Speaking on the occasion, Himalaya Wellness Company director of BabyCare Chakravarthi N V said, “At Himalaya, babies and moms are our top priority, and we believe that a healthy start in life sets the foundation for a lifetime of well-being. We are excited to partner with UNICEF India to assist underprivileged mothers and children. This partnership aims to raise baby and mother care awareness, support mothers and children with essential healthcare services, and celebrate the joys of parenthood with them. Together, we are committed to ensuring happy beginnings for mothers and children, enabling them to live healthy and fulfilling lives.”
This collaboration with UNICEF highlights Himalaya BabyCare’s dedication to baby care and supporting mothers through their parenting journey, ensuring the healthy growth of babies and a worry-free baby care experience for moms/parents.
Commenting on the same, UNICEF India chief of communication, advocacy and partnerships Zafrin Chowdhury said, “UNICEF and Himalaya Baby Care are pleased to launch ‘Happy Beginnings,’ an advocacy campaign to raise awareness on the importance of a healthy and joyful start #ForEveryChild. Together, our active participation in amplifying the messages will be vital in spreading the word and making a difference. As UNICEF completes 75 years in India, we look forward to our journey with Himalaya Baby Care. Let’s unite to create a wave of positive change, one happy beginning at a time!”
This community-building exercise represents a significant step towards ensuring #HappyBeginnings for mothers and children across India. Himalaya BabyCare and UNICEF are proud to promote this initiative, reinforcing their commitment to making a positive and progressive change in society.

Beep App launches Gen-Z career platform, clocks 30,000 plus placements
Pune startup turns scrolling into career action with learn-explore-earn model
PUNE: Beep App has rolled out its newly positioned career-focused app aimed at Gen-Z users, as it looks to bridge what it calls a growing gap between exposure and employability among young Indians.
Formerly known as EventBeep, the platform is built around a simple but timely idea: turning everyday scrolling into meaningful career action. The app targets students and early professionals, offering a unified space to explore career options, learn relevant skills and access internships and job opportunities.
At a time when short-form content dominates screen time, Beep is attempting to flip the script by embedding structured, career-oriented insights within a familiar scroll-based interface. The idea is not to disrupt user behaviour, but to redirect it.
The platform spans a wide range of fields, including artificial intelligence, product management, design and data analytics. It provides users with insights into role expectations, required skills and step-by-step career pathways, supported by inputs from industry practitioners.
At the heart of the offering is a “learn, explore, earn” model that integrates discovery, skill-building and hiring into one ecosystem. The company says this closed-loop approach is already gaining traction, with over 30,000 placements facilitated so far.
“Gen-Z does not lack ambition; what they often lack is structured direction,” said Beep App founder and CEO Saurabh Mangrulkar. “The Beep App is designed to organise that exposure into actionable pathways so users can move from intent to execution with greater confidence.”
The launch comes amid a broader shift in India’s job market towards skills-first hiring, where practical experience and demonstrable capabilities are increasingly valued alongside academic qualifications.
Founded in 2021, Beep App has grown steadily within the student ecosystem, connecting over 6.5 million users with opportunities across more than 1,500 colleges and 7,800 hiring companies.
Looking ahead, the company plans to deepen its content across emerging sectors, expand its hiring network and build more personalised career pathways tailored to user behaviour.
As Gen-Z continues to navigate a complex and fast-evolving job market, platforms that can turn curiosity into clarity may well shape the next wave of career discovery.
