The University Awareness Drive took place in Indraprastha College for Women on 5th of September.
The main aim of this drive was to create awareness about AID and Aashayein alongwith raising funds.
While the movie Poison on the Platter based on Genetically Modified Foods was being screened in the Seminar Room of the college by the Women's Development Centre, the Aashayein stall was put up downstairs. Selva Ganapathy gave a talk on GM foods and its potential threats to us and why it should be avoided. This was followed by the screening of the Aashayein video after which Anandita and Deboshree gave a brief introduction of Aashayein, its present activities and its future aims to all the students present.
As a part of fund raising, T-shirts with the AID logo and the slogan of BE THE CHANGE YOU WANT TO SEE IN THE WORLD were sold in various colours (blue,red and white) along with hand made bags. Fortunately, our initiative was met with a lot of enthusiasm by the college students who poured in with names to volunteer.
Volunteers present were- Prachi, Swastik, Aditya, Ritu, Anandita, Nikita, Srishti, Vipra, Mohit, Vaibhav and Deboshree.
