The Joy of Giving Week took place at the Fiat Research and Development office in Pune.
Donations were given through the Wish Tree procedure, where wishes are put up on a cardboard tree and people pick a wish, write their name on the back of the wish card, and then drop it in the donation box along with the donation amount mentioned on the card.
To express and display the wishes they fulfilled, a corresponding wish note was put up on the tree in place of card which they put in the donation box. This wish note also had the person’s name to display their contribution to the social cause they chose, and to encourage other people to do the same.
The contribution amount collected from the Wish Tree was Rs. 26800 / €374, and the collection from the Fiat Sodexo box and coupons amounted to Rs. 2310 / €32. We also received donations of various items such as biscuits, puffed rice, rice flakes, rice, wheat flour, sweets, children’s clothes, toys, and educational materials like stationary, books, etc.
We thank Fiat for their valuable support to our social projects.
