GRA Bicycle Donation Function at Jawahar


   The Group for Rural Activities, IIT-Bombay had undertaken a bicycle collection campaign, in which the used cycles from passing out students were collected , repaired and to be given to the needy children. This year we have collected 75 bicycles. These cycles will be donated to school children, who have to walk few kilometers everyday to reach their school. These conditions hamper their educational progress and to help these children realize their dreams.

  The bicycle donation program will be held in Jawahar, a tribal tehsil in Thane. It will be a two day trip(Oct 8 and Oct 9) where we will be organizing the bicycle donation function and also interact with the kids, know about their plight and conditions. It will be a great opportunity to understand their life more closely. 
     If you are interested to attend this overnight trip please mail ASAP to gra@iitb.ac.in  We will be leaving from institute on October 8 Saturday @ 8am and return back on October 9 Sunday 6pm. For further details please mail to above said address
