Events

The week-long Cloth Collection Drive launched by the MCA Department of Kathua Campus ended by distributing the clothes to slum-dwellers. The students of MCA Department worked hard to promote the activity and in just one week, they managed to collect over 500 clothing items for the poor and needy. The Department has identified workers, slum-dwellers, and the destitute that are in need of winter clothing. The students had hired a tailor for any alterations to be conducted on part of the needy. Professor Meena Sharma, Rector Kathua Campus and Chief Coordinator Campuses, University of Jammu, in her message said a small gesture of donating clothes is a boon for poverty stricken, deprived people to stay happy during the cruel winter season. She lauded the students of MCA Department for their noble initiative and added that the students should imbibe the valuable learning from organizing these types of charity events and help the needy and deprived ones whenever they get the chance. She further added that such events are an important part of student life as it not only helps to create awareness about our social problems, but also gives a chance to improve the management skills. She further added that such ambitious mission conveys a pious message which should be followed in letter and spirit.
