Update about
the service project conducted by employees of S&P Capital IQ, www.spcapitaliq.com, Hyderabad - (Business
unit of McGraw Hill Financial www.mhfi.com )
About Community Impact Program: McGraw-Hill Financial (www.mhfi.com ), the company which strongly
believes in the motto, 'Giving back is essential'. MHFI encourages its employees
to work for service projects in which 3+ employees would be working together for
solving public problems in their community to build better lives and stronger communities.
MHFI grants $1000 per project and employees spend their personal time on the project.
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: Z.P. High School, Jakkadhona Village, Vedurukuppam Mandal,
Chittoor District, Andhra Pradesh, India-517126.
About the Project: Z.P. High school, Jakkadhona is located in Chittoor district
which is nearly 650 KMs from S&P Capital IQ, Hyderabad. In this school,
nearly more than 160 students are studying. All the students are from
economically backward and financially poor families. This school doesn’t have
desks for all the classes and students facing lot of problems while studying.
Even they don’t have sports material for playing. This school’s H.M sir
approached us and requested for financial support to provide required desks and
sports material which is most necessary. If S&P Capital IQ do so, it will
be more helpful to the students to overcome many problems and study well.
