Under the social initiative—iHelp, around 200 students from the government schools in Indore visited the IIM Indore campus on November 17, 2016. These students belong to the four government schools adopted by IIM Indore and are invited to visit the campus annually. The objective of this visit is to inspire the children through recreational means. The visit was also a part of Children’s Day celebration by iHelp.
During the event, a movie was screened for all the 200 school kids, which they thoroughly enjoyed. This was followed by lunch, a drama on gender sensitivity and some games and activities. An interactive session was also organised with Professor Rishikesha T. Krishnan, Director, IIM Indore and various faculty of the Institute. The kids left with a lot of memories, joy and smiles on their faces. They also thanked the iHelp team for all the efforts and promised to focus on their studies.
