India - Past pupils paint tribal village schools
Yercaud, India - November 2020 - To celebrate the 150th anniversary of the founding of the Past Pupils of Don Bosco, the Past Pupils of the "Sola Tribal Children's Home" have undertaken an initiative aimed at painting the government-run schools in the tribal villages, which are mostly neglected. On November 29, the past pupils started with the Kotachedu school in Yercaud Taluk, also joined by two Salesians from "The Retreat" in Yercaud, who are identifying the schools most in need of intervention. Masters undergraduates who are doing an internship at the Shevaroyhills Tribal Development Institute have also joined the past pupils in this venture.
