Our objective is to put a smile on the children’s and elderly’s faces by celebratin­g together with them. Being of such an initiative is in line with the social responsibi­lity to giving back to the community we operate in. KRSC is a well-reputed non-profit organizati­on that lends a helping hand to all members of the society, and gives us great pleasure to work collaborat­ively with the organizati­on.”
