Namaste!
This year’s Independence Day celebration had a different meaning for volunteers staying in Domlur/Indiranagar region. For the second year in the row, support for educating the poor was taken up. The volunteers had gathered financial support from friends and colleagues to provide school kits to the needy children at Domlur Slum.
School kits were sponsored by friends and donors in IT industry. The event was coordinated by Thyagaraj-Ji. This committed person has very good understanding of slum dwellers and status of each family. He handpicked 130 children, who longed for external support – even to own a school bag and books. Each school kit contains one school bag, six notebooks of 200 pages each and a geometry box.
The event coincided Independence Day celebrations. The function was presided by Suresh-Ji.
We now have a plan to reach out to 150 children. The year also marks the third anniversary of the initiative. Pour in your contributions to help the needy.
Shubham,
Raghu
