With the goodwill and support of Mr. Vimal Jain of Mahalakshimi Jewellers and Ms. Brindha, tuition teacher; food packets were distributed to sixty vulnerable people from the streets. The children identified the street dwellers in the vicinity of KR Market and Jolly Mohalla and invited them to BOSCO Nilaya for an interaction and some television entertainment. Mr. Waseem, tuition teacher provided a short orientation on the importance of sharing and caring. The street dwellers were guided to approach BOSCO Nilaya for any assistance and later, food packets were distributed by the children and staff.
