The Community Library that was established as a part of the 'Bricks 2 Books' project reaches out to the underprivileged children and kindles the interest for reading in them. The children are encouraged to issue books at a minimum cost of Rs. 2/-. This motivates them to look at a world beyond their imagination. Counseling sessions are held for the parents time and again and guidance is provided to help them enroll their children into the mainstream school. The initiative has been appreciated by the community leaders and the amount received as donation is used to buy books and uniform for the children who have been successful in getting admission in the mainstream schools.
