Our Impact in Numbers
Message from the District Governor
This year we’re keeping it simple and local: health, education, dignity. Our focus is on three practical fronts—HPV awareness and vaccination for adolescent girls, safe, well-maintained school toilets, and digital classrooms/smart boards in government schools with teacher support. Clubs and CSR partners will help fund, implement, and measure each project so every rupee turns into visible change. If any of this speaks to you, join us.
Rtn. J. Karthik
