Our Current Project

The Library Project

During the period of Covid our interaction with local volunteers gave us the insight into problems faced by children due to online education. Children were studying from home, and many of them had no textbooks or digests to work with. To put books within reach ‘The Library Project’ was started in April 2021.

First Snehsparsh Library – Hari Nagar, Jogeshwari East

Our first free Library was inaugurated on 30th May 2021 by Shri Vipin Bhai Gala, Chairman of Navneet Education.
