WE, a group of individuals from different walks of life, got together and started working on our own capacity and volunteering in every little way we can to help the people at the Mekola Relief camp who were displaced due to the ongoing unrest in the state

Today 4th of Sept 2023, after months of working together, we got a chance to participate in the "World Entrepreneurship Day" at TS Paul Women's College where many entrepreneurs as well as another relief camp apart from us participated to sell/display the products that we have been creating for the past many days. It was an overwhelming experience for the children who participated as there were many supporters who came to visit and acknowledge and encourage the work we have been doing as a way of symptomatic relief. 

It also gave them an opportunity to get out of the relief camps and engage with people and think and talk about growth and hope for the future, for the first time in this 4 months long unrest in the state.
