"Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day; teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime."
A solution to people addicted to drugs or caught in the vortex of sexual abuse have is counselling,reaching out and medical assistance if necessary. But what if we address the problem in the root itself by spreading awareness about the ill-effects of Drug and Sexual Abuse, and how we can combat and face them?
That’s exactly what the students of ITM Business School,Kharghar did at St.Augustine School, Nerul.
The B-school students briefed school going children from class 7th to 10th about the various social issues like child abuse,child labour and harmful effects of smoking and drugs and poverty. They also spoke about the Heart foundation initiatives which help in reducing and eradicating such menace from the society.
The students were like sponge, absorbing each and everything that was being said and were highly interactive as well. They connected well with the ITM students and were ever so enthusiastic to come up with a myriad of questions to ask the presenters!
It was pretty much a fruitful interaction for both the set of students. We hope we can have the same impact in other schools as well!
