To make Yi second anniversary a memorable day, Yi conducted two programmes at Glorious Academy School for the underprivileged kids Arera colony Bhopal.

In an initiative to contribute towards the Environment, Education Sector and society, Yi has taken up the activity of providing notebooks to the students in need. This activity is known as 'Right to Write'. The organisation does this by collecting used notebooks from various institutions and rebinding the unused pages out of them.

This year Yi collected old notebooks from 10 schools around Bhopal and rebound the unused pages out of them. The children from Glorious Academy are the first to receive these notebooks. 160 students were provided with the recycled notebooks in the event. The kids were also explained about the importance of environment protection. This year the project is supported by Jagran lakecity University, Bhopal.

Yi Bhopal Chairperson Mihir Merchant, Co-Chairperson Prakriti Jain, Project owner Rakesh Sukhramani along with other Yi members were present at the ceremony and distributed sweets, notebooks and chocolates to the school kids.

A free dental healthcare camp was also organised with the help of Rishiraj Dental clinic. Dr. Arpan Shrivastav along with his dental experts did the dental check up of 160 children and 12 adults. The Doctors also explained the importance of dental health in life and gave tips to keep the teeth healthy.
