This year, the company has decided to concentrate on children and came up with ideas like 'Lighting the Sparks' to start toy and book libraries across India and also collaborated with 'Make A Wish' foundation.

The happiness on the children's faces was heart warming as their wishes came true. Deepak rode his bicycle with pride, while Arvind donned cricket gear he had been longing for. Vikas was delighted to receive a stereo system and Ganesh was happy with his football kit.
