Chandigarh: Five girls in Chandigarh launched an initiative to collect electronic gadgets from people in the form of donations for helping economically weaker girls attend online classes.
Saachi Ahuja, one of the five girls, told news agency ANI, “We’ve given gadgets to 21 girls. It’s helping them to attend online classes as schools are closed.”
Under the initiative ‘Prerna – for you and us’, these girls came together to encourage people to donate their mobile phones and laptops to underprivileged girls who can not afford these expensive things for online studies. They have also been helped by their tutor in Chandigarh.
Another girl from the group said, “We talked to our teacher and got to know that there are some students who cannot attend e-classes so we came up with an idea of Prerna – for you and us under which we encourage people to donate their gadgets for the needy ones.”
