About Community Impact Program: McGraw-Hill Financial (www.mhfi.com ) the company which strongly

This year S&P Capital IQ, Hyderabad (part of MHFI group) employees applied for
projects from various areas of the Nation to serve the society under Employee
Volunteer Grant (EVG).
Project Location: Pittambanda Village, Vinukonda Mandal, Guntur District, Andhra
Pradesh, India
About the Project: Pittambanda is a village located near Guntur District, Vinukonda
Mandal which is 300 KM from our Hyderabad Office. There are no basic immunities
in our village which is effecting the environment and increasing pollution day
by day. So, it would be helpful if we increase greenery by planting saplings in
the different areas in the village and also better if we provide Tree Guards to
protect the plants. We also intended to arrange Cement benches on the foot path
that will help our village to increase basic amenities and it will help to
increase better standard of living.
