The quote 'Studying for a greater cause' is brought into play here.

Hello,

Sharing about one Good Initiative

Academia_thriftnate is a book shop on Instagram affiliated with Cholo Paltai NGO. @cholopaltai2 has led many drives for stationery, food, Yaas relief etc.
The Calcutta Anti-covid belt emerged from them and now they are helping to rebuild Sunderban. But the funds collected aren't sufficient so they started a page where you can sell, buy or donate books and 75% of the profit goes to Cholo Paltai donation fund.
This initiative has many positive collateral impacts like waste reduction, saving trees etc. So would be grateful for your help. Even following the page or liking the posts will help them to reach many more people who NEED help and who CAN help.
