Jaagriti Celebrates Joy of Giving

Project Jaagriti is celebrating Joy of Giving week, a national movement, a platform which giveseach one of us the opportunity to reach out and do something good- something that you have always wanted to do. More importantly, it offers us the chance to use the power of collective individual action to make a difference.

Last week, we launched a campaign to collect various old reusable items, such as old clothes, old newspaper, stationary, study material etc. for the benefit of the children and their families under the project. The campaign, already conducted with over 600 families, friends and relatives at various locations, has been a great success and is still ongoing.
