Location: Gehlaur, Gaya Bihar
Supported By: SBI Foundation
About the project:
SBIF has recently initiated a unique program series called “SBI Sammaan – Hom(e)age to
the National Heroes”, with a vision to carry out developmental activities in the native places
of some renowned freedom fighters, war veterans and public heroes. While the word
‘Sammaan’ means honour, the unique spelt ‘Hom(e)age’ symbolises the homage being paid
right in ‘home’ towns of these icons. SBIF has taken up the program implementation in the
villages of some prominent personalities from various parts of the country.
Through ‘SBI Sammaan’, SBIF will not only be reaffirming its commitment for driving positive
impact but will also be paying befitting homage to the national heroes by honouring their
spirit, valor and contribution to the society.
