GUCBF The Gujarat Urban Cooperative Banks Federation

was established in Ahmedabad on 5th March 1975 in accordance with the provisions of the Gujarat Co-Operative Society Act, 1961.

The Gujarat Urban Cooperative Banks Federation is constituted of 244 member banks having more than 800 branches across the state.

The main objective of Project Flood IT was to achieve the goals of the Digital Literacy Mission by offering 0% interest loans to students for buying PCs/Laptops/Tablets.

PROJECT FLOOD IT The project aimed to usher in a Knowledge

Revolution through computer ownership and to provide computers to students from Kindergarten (KG) to Post Graduation (PG).

In the wake of Flood IT I, an immensely successful initiative by the GUCBF, Flood IT II was envisioned to empower the student community with Knowledge catalyst devices right at their door-steps.

A target of 3,00,000 devices was set for FLOOD IT-II vis-a-vis the last achievement of 1,00,000 devices.
