Mohali, Aug. 29, 2023:- Cogneesol, an IT  company which has  its Indian headquarters in Mohali, under its Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) initiative,  has supported a 'Handmade Rakhi Making Project' undertaken for skill development of government school children. The company provided support  in buying raw material for making the handmade rakhis. Professional trainers to help the children of  Government Middle School of village Ballakalan develop the rakhis were also provided; not just this the company also helped in putting up an exhibition of the rakhis made by the children.  

 Karamvir Singh, Administrator,  Cogneesol, said that we wanted the students to celebrate Rakhi in a meaningful way. So under the initiative, eleven students created as many as 505 beautiful rakhis which were put up at an exhibition of the handmade rakhis' -  'Happy Strings'. This gave the children a lot of confidence as they learnt the importance of hardwork and skill development.

Avinash Kaur, from Cogneesol, who  assisted in organisation of the exhibition , added that not only did the students learn the art of rakhi making but also collected Rs. 8000 by selling the rakhis to customers who visited  the exhibition. The whole project made the kids aware about how a product can be developed and also sold, they got informed about  business techniques in a practical way.

The exhibition in-charge was Chhavi and many dignitaries visited the showcase.
