Dear Parents,

As a part of our social responsibility to which we are constantly committed, particularly in the case of children, Greenwood High will be organizing an event to create an awareness of India’s twenty-four hour helpline for children in distress: 1098.

We request you and urge you very strongly, as parents, to unite your efforts to ours to help popularize this helpline started by our government.
