DARJEELING: The St. Joseph's school in Darjeeling is all set to throw open the gates for the less fortunate living up to the lines from the school chorus, "Here's a hand to a faltering brother, here's a lift for the lame and the slow."
From January 6 to January 31, underprivileged students from far flung tea gardens and neighbouring areas will enjoy the facilities of the school.
This programme was started in 2007 by the then Rector Father Kinley. However, as summer camps, winter camps are organised everywhere, the programme was rechristened "Bal Kunj" from 2023.
