Bappa distributes the books

Shri Krishna Vyayam Mandal, Shukrvarpet, Pune, came up with this unique idea. On the occasion of Ganesh Chaturthi, they decide to offer Ganpati Bappa study kits of four books, pen, pencil, scale, eraser and sharpener, so that the kits can be later distributed to needy children. The idea was that the children, instead of feeling proud for giving it as charity, were in gratitude for making an offering to Ganapati Bappa. This offering later was distributed in the rural India.
