XtraTime Web Desk: Indian cricket team star batsman KL Rahul’s clothing brand has launched their new social media initiative on Sunday, when they have auctioned a hoodie for a charity. The white hoodie which was personally autographed by Rahul was put up for auction.
Talking about the same, Rahul said, “‘Don’t be mute’ is a social initiative by my brand. The new collection is about encouraging social activism and speaking up against injustice. If you see any injustice against any community then speak up and report it. Don’t be mute.”
The proceeds of the same went to ‘The Wishing Factory’ that works towards providing thalassemia major patients with transfusion kits.
Earlier, Rahul had donated a lot of his cricket memorabilia, including his 2019 World cup bat, for auction. All the proceeds from the auction went to the ‘Aware Foundation’.
Rahul, like other cricketers and sportspersons, has been at home as the coronavirus pandemic brought a halt to most major sports around the world. He was to captain Kings XI Punjab in the 2020 season of the Indian Premier League, which has been on hold until further notice.
