Virtual Fundraisers
This is when the team decided to break out of the ordinary and start doing virtual fundraisers by organising workshops. Their events are scheduled to last from June 11 to June 16, with events such as music, poetry, gaming nights, art competition, rap battle, mimicry and beat-boxing.

“The motive of these events was to bring joy and knowledge to the participants,” said Chopra.

They have managed to rope in sponsors as well, and have partnered with several other NGOs like Kiran, Kartavya, and Nav Jeevan Prayas Foundation.
