Students donate their mite for flood victims

In a kind gesture, the students of SJC made a contribution for the flood victims of North Karnataka here on Wednesday. The lecturer in charge of the collection was Godwin D’Souza of Electronics Department.
Three groups comprising students went round classes with dumb boxes. A total of Rupees 20,000 was collected on the first day itself. In addition students also donated clothes
Mr Godwin D’Souza said that contributions by students were quite satisfactory. “The funds accumulated were less since students were busy with their practical exams. There was no much awareness brought among the students. Creating further awareness would help in raising more funds,” he added.
Fr Eric Mathias from Jesuit school of north Karnataka will be coming himself on Friday to collect the funds raised for children. The rest of the collection will be made on Thursday. Mr Godwin said that those who did not contribute could give their mite. Sandeep from III PMC will be the student in-charge.
