Vaishali Patel of Akshar Gyaan says “My experience with the aProCh foundation has been great. The foundation through their various programs reaches out to many less privileged children in the society. The children at my school are no exception. The movies and many trips to law garden organized by aProCh have been a memorable experience for the children at my school. These fun outings encourages them to come to school regularly and learn more and thus aProCh helps spreading education. These children had never visited theatre to watch a movie in a plush multiplex with popcorns and coldrink.This is truly a dream come true for them. Even at the carnivals at Law garden the children dance, play and enjoy.aProCh is truly living up to its name and help these children approach a good lifestyle.
I would like to thank and congratulate aProCh Foundation and all its members for its great work. "
