Delhi Public School, Sector-40C, Chandigarh

Students of DPS, Sector-40C, Chandigarh, under the leadership of their charismatic Principal, Ms Reema Dewan collectively raised an amount of INR 3 Lakhs towards supporting transplants for poor children. This is their modest beginning for the noble cause.

Delhi Public School, Chandigarh with a strength of nearly 3300 students is one of the leading educational institution in the region. The motto of the institution "Service before Self" reflects the underlying principle of prioritizing selfless acts and promoting a strong sense of social responsibility. The school believes that fund raising provides an opportunity for students to step out of their comfort zone, recognize their privileges and take action to support those in need.

The school took up three causes in the current academic year: Adopt an animal, Sustainability and Organ Donation.

Delhi Public School Bengaluru North

During her flight travel from Dubai to Bengaluru, Ms. Manjula, the Principal of Delhi Public School Bengaluru North, happened to see the movie "Aye Zindagi," and was very moved by what she saw. Aye Zindagi is a film depicting the life of Ms. Lalitha Raghuram (Country Director, MOHAN Foundation), who tragically lost her teenage son, Swamy, in a car accident and took the courageous decision to donate his organs.

Inspired by the movie, Ms. Manjula proposed a collaboration between MOHAN Foundation and Delhi Public School, Bengaluru for a fundraising initiative, through the crowdfunding platform, "Fuel a Dream" to raise funds for underprivileged children requiring lifesaving transplants.

The collaboration between MOHAN Foundation, Delhi Public School Bengaluru North, and Fuel a Dream proved to be a resounding success. Close to 100 students raised money to support this initiative which paved the way for five children receiving a paediatric transplant.
