Who are we?
Private individuals with no political, religious, caste or linguistic affiliation. Many of the member of this group are alumni of PSG College of Technology from 1983-87, their friends and family. But, it must be noted that our friends and family contribute in a big way. In providing volunteer work, few of friends and relatives have played a MAJOR role.
What do we intend to do?
Provide Corona Relief initially and then as situations ease get into social reconstruction activities.
