We are thankful to SGBS Unnati Foundation and Rotary Club of Madras for partnering with us in this noble endeavour.”




Dr. Arulmozhi Varman, President, Rotary Club of Madras said, “Rotary’s thrust is also on providing quality education and eradicating illiteracy. So, when this proposition was put to us, we readily agreed and offered our space for the Students to undergo this vocational training program.”
