It was an augury that they found a helping hand and a willing collaborator in ICNA Relief, Canada.
Bolstered by the largesse coming in, FEED has been rendering yeomen service to the society by sponsoring the education needs of orphan students from the school level right up to their professional pursuits and syncs with the KG to PG plans of the Telangana State government.
At a function organised at the FEED office in Begumpet on Sunday, where financial assistance was given to orphans, who were selected by ICNA Relief, Chairman of Hyderabad Zakat and Charitable Trust (HZCT) Ghiasuddin Babukhan said, “A budgetary allocation of Rs 1.60 crore has been earmarked for the Orphan Scholarship Program.

”
The scene at the venue was lively as one witnessed absolute joy on the faces of the beneficiaries and the elders accompanying them.
