Let this generous act continue. The alumni should always help their alma mater. Behind this generosity, there is effort and sacrifice. The love and sacrifice shown by the faculty of the college helps shape the future of students.”

“We should all be indebted to the society. We have benefited from the services of other people. Other people are sacrificing for us. If we donate to schools, it will make a major difference in the society. We can experience satisfaction while doing charity,”
