On the 24th of July 2016 during the function held at D Y Patil Medical College Auditorium we handed over financial assistance cheques to 121 needy students to help them to pursue their studies. Mr Yogendra Yadav from NASEOH was theChief Guest and Mr. Pritish Nair was the Guest of Honour.

The smile and the happiness on the faces of the 120 odd children and their parents said it all. These were the recipients of the 3rd Educational Financial Assistance from our Trust.

Remember... It could have been possible that we, the privileged ones, were born in the places of the underprivileged ones. But we were lucky... So let us not forget this important factor…... It is fate that has separated the privileged from the underprivileged.  Let us share at least a small part of our earnings towards the welfare of the underprivileged.

It would gladden hearts to know that :

There is a boy in the final year Engineering whom we support. The boy delivers  milk daily to houses and even on the days of exams.
There is also a  boy who works night shift  to support his family. 

There is another boy whose father has forsaken family. This boy used to lift loads in the market to support the family. This boy after diploma in engineering is working in Jindal Drilling.
