    Dear Daiji Editors, I want to thank you for diverting our attention towards such lovely and appreciative events which always go unnoticed. They promote a sense of awareness and determination in me to do something for such organisations. But my situation as of now does not permit me due to my studies. Hence I encourage all other readers to come forward and support their cause. Cheers!!
