It is already "Back to School" Season and before we know it, it will soon be a new school year heralding a year filled with knowledge, laughter and fun!
As we look forward to yet another promising new academic year for our children, let us pause for a moment and think about our less fortunate brethren for whom even the basic necessities like school supplies remains an unachievable dream!
" Danam" or "Charitable Giving" is the cornerstone of our religion- Sanatana Dharma and it is emphasized that the Dana of knowledge is of the highest order!
With this lofty ideal in mind, Ohmkaram has embarked upon a “School Supplies Donation Drive", wherein we encourage all our members to donate generously towards this noble cause.
