Lucknow Students Organize Winter Clothing Drive
In Lucknow, a group of students started a project to help people who don't have homes stay warm in the winter.
They collect warm clothes, shoes, food, and other important things.
They then give these items to people who need them the most.
A 19-year-old student named Shagun Pal is leading this effort.
So far, they have helped about 250 to 300 people, and they want to help 400 more.
You can help by donating money or things like clothes and food.
You can also volunteer your time to help with the project.
This project is making a big difference for people who are struggling during the cold winter months.
Praan Foundation, a student-led organization in Lucknow, is conducting a winter donation drive to support homeless and underprivileged individuals.
The drive collects warm clothes, footwear, food, raw grains, and stationery to distribute to those in need.
Shagun Pal, a 19-year-old B.Sc. student at Lucknow University, is coordinating the effort, aiming to support around 400 people.
Donations can be made through UPI, bank transfer, or by contributing in-kind items like winter clothing and food.
Volunteers sort, clean, and pack the donations, then distribute them directly to communities in need across Lucknow.
