Context

Education is not just acquiring knowledge and obtaining degrees and recognition but using the knowledge gained for the benefit of society at large. Social responsibility and inclusiveness form an integral part of the graduation process. Instilling social responsibility in students helps them to realize the social and economic disparities in society. There are many socially and economically backward people around us and it is the duty of every citizen to find them and move forward economically and socially. As such social commitment is declining in the new generation, the college has set up a project called Hope‌ to help them understand the importance of social service.

Practice

The college takes many initiatives to develop social responsibility among students through HOPE

ABHAYAM House Construction Project

The college is located in a rural area and there are numerous homeless families, who are economically poor and need immediate attention. Realizing the need to help them, the college NSS Unit initiated a house construction program with an aim of constructing at least a house and handing it over to the deserving family. NSS unit identifies the most deserving family by communicating with the college community, people’s representatives, and the local community. NSS PO and representatives from both students and faculty visit the family concerned and ensure their claim to the program. Two houses were constructed and handed over to poor people in the surroundings.

A Helping Hand For Indigent Patients

With the cooperation of the entire student body and faculty of the college, many patients were able to become supportive. Over the past five years, we have been able to reach many people with serious illnesses.

The money was raised by collecting directly from the students and organizing a food fest.
