As a part of the Ponty Chadha Foundation’s mission to consistently help and aid those who are less fortunate than us, it sponsored blankets for 200 students from 3 schools in Ludhiana. The children who received the blankets come from economically weak families; some of them are affected by the tribulations of child labour while others were disabled.
