Mrs. Jaya Jairam conducted the awareness talk whereby she address the crowd of 100 students and a few teachers about the concepts of organ donation, why it was the need of the hour and where India stood on the global map of organ donation.

The students were encouraged to discuss these concepts with their parents and were distributed informative fliers. Around 18 persons, including a few students who were of legal age and the teachers, availed of the donor cards.
