About the Project:
This Recreation shelter situated at around 10 kilometers from
our office in Kukatpally, Prashanthi Nagar colony, Hyderabad-072, is useful to
around 400 senior citizens and 500 children in the nearby residential colonies.
This shelter can be used for recreation, news paper reading
& meetings of senior citizen and also for the recreational and learning
activities, like Yoga, Summer Coaching classes for the children. This would be
a memorable contribution from the Company, as the shed lasts for around 20 years

Company’s name as sponsor of the shed gives good recognition to our company in
the nearby colonies.
