Sewa Day
The aim of Sewa Day is to provide people with a chance to give back to the local community through volunteering on a single day to make a difference. Each event organised is based on at least one of the principles below:
- To relieve hardship and poverty
- To bring a little joy where none exists
- To help the environment
We discourage all projects that involve fund-raising; as the purpose is to give your time. This year, Sewa day is on Sunday 25th September 2011.
