Besides many others, there are about 30 schools across Jamshedpur who are participating in "Vastra Samman" initiative (donation of wearable clothes, which will then be sorted and distributed to the underprivileged - and for Orissa Flood Relief). Since the Joy of Giving Week: Jamshedpur JoyFest is falling during the Pooja vacations, most schools are celebrating it either before or after the Week.
Since a picture is more than a 1000 words, here are some photographs from what Motilal Nehru Public School contributed for the initative today... and this is less than half what the students had collected; it filled up the entire Wagon-R (so tomorrow we will go with a tempo to collect the rest)
PostScript: We did return the next day to collect the remaining contribution. And now, with contribution from just one school, this is how our "collection center" looks like!!
