IIM students script self-help lesson, News - City - Bangalore Mirror,Bangalore Mirror: "But, in a first of sorts, students enrolled for the one-year Executive Post-Graduate Program at IIM-B pooled in money from their own pockets for their social responsibility initiative ‘Prayaas’. The 65 students want to fit at least 40 people with the Jaipur Foot and have collected close to Rs 1 lakh for the purpose.

“We did seek sponsors, but nothing worked out,” says Pankaj Jain who came up with the idea to do something different from the usual blood donation camps. But the students were determined to go ahead with the initiative and decided to raise the money from among themselves."
