NITW Director has initiated a program to donate laptops to underprivileged current NITW students who are having difficulties attending online classes during this pandemic.

Students are selected by the college through a formal process (annual income of parents less than 2 lakh rupees) and laptops are distributed to them in a public event in the college Auditorium (see above photos and media coverage for the 1st distribution of laptops funded by some of the alumni in India). Each new laptop (from a local distributor who also covers maintenance) costs 30K rupees.

NITW Americas Alumni Association is asking alumni in the US to donate any amount for this well deserved cause.

If you would like to donate, here are the details…
