ISR Club


Dear All, Greetings from Sai Anugraha. 

Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) is about Corporates which gives much importance and encouragement to its employees to do community service in the fields of Education, Health, Environment etc. Individual Social Responsibility (ISR), is about an individual becoming responsible in his/her actions that have affect on communities outside his/her immediate circle. Inspired by the concept and having few requests with us falling in to this category, Sai Anugraha starting a new initiative called 'ISR Club'. Under this initiative, we need interested volunteers to take part in below mentioned programs.

3. To teach all subjects at Sai Anugraha adopted Pallavaram Study Center, Pallavaram, Chennai on weekends for 10th - 12th class. 
4. To take care of autism kids at Navalur, OMR, Chennai. This would require patience and long term commitment as we may not surely say when the kid will be cured and completely out of Autism. 
5. To donate blood when it is needed.
6. To refer schools to organize 'Let's Green Our City' initiative. 
7. To help as scribes and write exams for visually challenged persons.

Dear All, Greetings from Sai Anugraha! 

8 members of Sai Anugraha family visited Pallavaram study center, Chennai and celebrated Diwali with Children on 13th Nov 2012, Tuesday and spent 3 hours. 

As part of the visit, Karthik briefed the importance of sapling plantation and conducted awareness session on global warming and the measures to control it. We also conducted quiz competition and distributed prizes to the winners.
Children were very enthusiastic and actively answered all questions when Sai Anugraha volunteers asked about career aspirations. It is very positive note to hear from the children that they want to become doctor, IAS, IPS, join Indian Army etc to serve the people and also told that they are strict against the corruption. No one is interested to become software engineer or politician :-).
