Students of EuroSchool in Thane recently raised Rs 4 lakh through a crowd funding campaign, to help provide smart devices for online learning to underprivileged children from Marathwada and Vidarbha. The initiative, in association with an NGO – Light of Life Trust, will bring smiles to the faces of over 500 school children who will be given smart tablets through the sum.

The pandemic has brought a new normal for all and for the education sector, it is online learning. But it is impossible without the required smart devices and connectivity which has been a cause of concern for many children coming from underprivileged backgrounds. In these difficult times, many hands have come forward to help those in need. Students from several posh city schools have held similar drives to help underprivileged children. By raising this amount in 30 days, 48 students from EuroSchool have set another example.
