Our Strength

•More than physical work, we aim at the personality development of the students.

•A good number of Ready to Work volunteers on call.

•We are able to create a group of young men socially active.

•We help the poor and needy especially in time of

blood requirements.

•Inter department friendship of students fostered.

•Volunteers get more exposure through Inter- Collegiate, State level and National level camps.

46

However….• We are not able to bring all the enrolled volunteers to all the programmes and get Certificates to all.

• Normally students of economically and educationally weak background become active in the programmes.

•The allotted fund for NSS activity is not sufficient.

• Not able to associate with agencies like CHASS.

• No tangible achievements like house, library etc.

• Only one Programme Officer could attend the Orientation

Course at TOC, RCSS.

• The Advisory meetings are not seriously conducted.

• Female volunteers are few in number, hence they could not be accommodated in the special camping programmes.

47

Road Map

• Help maximum students achieve all

the objectives of NSS• Make SB NSS the Best in the State• Organize a National Integration Camp

in the Navathy Year• Make tangible assets like house or library• Form ‘life clubs’ along important roads to

help the victims of road accidents
