Launching the scheme at BIT, the Principal Dr. K. Palakshappa handed over an envelope to the Chairman Mr. Syed Mohamed Beary, containing the first contribution to the fund by himself, the Campus Director and the Heads of the Departments. The Chairman then immediately deposited Rs.1,00,000 to the fund as a matching grant from the management and wished the scheme the very best. Student volunteers and faculty coordinators of the scheme received the contribution from him.

Mr. Syed Mohamed Beary then addressed the gathering. In his talk, he said "Every success story has sacrifice incorporated with it. Only when you recognise the sacrifices of successful people will a better society be created. Sharing of knowledge and helping the needy people will only help you grow morally and ethically in life."

The guest of honor Mr. Andrew J Lock congratulated the students and staff of BIT for taking up this initiative and said, "It's an enormous gift to help people and be a part of their life." In his talk delivered to a packed audience listening in rapt attention, he stressed upon realizing the purpose of life and committing oneself for that. Drawing extensively from his vast experience, he said that it was the warm greeting of an employee at Herman Miller when he went there for the first time that prompted him to join the organisation. Its values and commitment to quality made him stick on with it for over two decades.

Mr. Karthik Shethia then gave his talk in which he said that an understanding leader is always the best tonic for the team members to function smoothly and enthusiastically. He presented a video to the audience in which he highlighted how Herman Miller actively participates in the upkeep and nurturing of nature - a ‘green' concept very much close to one of the founding principles of BIT.
