To celebrate International Literacy Day, Soroptimist Welfare Association (SIBC) in association with Wonder Wheel Online Store and Pillai College of Education and Research, Chembur started an online campaign where donors could donate school bags, stationery and other educational supplies for marginalized children studying in schools in Mumbai and nearby villages. The educational supplies collected were distributed to an Adivasi Zilla Parishad School in our adopted village, Warmal, Raigadh.
