This celebration of two very rich & distinct cultures makes this day uber-special for SRM IHM.
Westmont University is visiting India this time for the sole purpose of providing humanitarian aid for people in need.

This truly deserves mention & honour that they will come all the way from California to help these elderly people. This exemplary, kind work deserves appreciation for everyone from Westmont. This showcases the true essence, character & nature of students from Westmont & also explains why this institution is so renowned & distinguished.
This exchange turned out to be a very fruitful for the students of Westmont & also for students at SRM IHM wherein the experience is beyond border & we trust that their goodwill gesture will bring further peace & serenity & make world a better place.
