The project’s completed works will be immediately put into operation in the academic year 2022-2023. These include a fully equipped classroom building, a standard playground, sanitation area, and other classroom equipment.

The fundraising initiative received wholehearted support and participation, as well as generous donations from hundreds of staff, agents, public members, and donors across the country.

On this occasion, to promote the love for reading and help the kindergarten children to develop a positive reading habit from a young age, Generali and its partners also gifted a ‘mini library’ with hundreds of books and reading materials.
