The event, Vanasourabham, hosted by Sahrdaya College of Advance Studies, Kodakara, Thrissur held on 5/3/25 was officially inaugurated by SCAS Finance Officer Fr. Sibin Vazhapilly, who marked the occasion by purchasing the first product.

Beyond the sales, a practical training session on crafting plastic bags and decorative cloth work was a highlight. Students actively participated, demonstrating remarkable creativity and dedication. The beautifully handcrafted bags produced during this session were later used as prize packaging for our OMC sisters, adding a personal and meaningful touch to the event’s closing celebrations. The entire initiative brought immense joy and a sense of accomplishment to all involved.
