Ethos 2014 extends support to CARF’s awareness building campaign
ethos, the Annual Management Conclave and Cultural Utsaav was organised by students of H.K. Institute of Management Studies & Research (HKIMSR), Oshiwara, Mumbai on Jan 30 | Jan 31 | Feb 01, 2014 at H.K. Campus in Jogeshwari (W), adjacent to Andheri (W)

More than 5000 students each year compete in various games and cultural presentations over a period of three days fiesta supported by several corporate organizations. The fifth edition, ethos 2014, witnessed a congregation of close to 7000 students and support from 52 corporate sponsors.
Each year students of HKIMSR under the guidance of their mentor Prof. Tamojit Ghosh Roy support a social cause during ethos. This year students decided to extend support to CARF’s awareness building campaign during ethos 2014. CARF – Cancer Aid & Research Foundation is an NGO dedicated to support the ailing cancer patients, irrespective of their age, caste, creed and colour. The evening was dedicated to the presentations by CARF beneficiaries. Young children, who are in the recovery phase from this dreaded disease, made heart-warming dances on Bollywood numbers. A ramp-walking was choreographed for the children supported by CARF and beautifully anchored by Mr. UMAIR KHAN andMs. BHARTI MASIWAL. The little children were enthralled to walk on the ramp with professional choreographer and the students of HKIMSR. This social event was supported by Indian Oil Corporation and felicitation of these young children was done by two senior officials from IOC, Mr. Dilip Hari, DGM –HR, and Ms. Sabitha Natraj, Sr. Communications Manager.
The fifth edition included Run for a Cause on Feb 01, 2014 – a 3 km run dedicated to supporting the noble cause of CARF. The student volunteers donned CARF gears through the running track. Supported by Hyper CITY, Spykar and over 50 other leading corporations in Mumbai city, the Run for a Cause was flagged-off by Honorable Shri Aslam Shaikh, MLA and Councillor on Feb 01, 2014 (7.00 am) from Hyper CITY Malad concluding at H K Campus.The event witnessed the presence of celebrities and dignitaries like Feroze Khan, the famous choreographer and his dancing prodigy Vicki Das from Dance India Dance (dance show on Zee TV); Samantha Fernandes and Nilesh Macedona from Dil, Dosti, Dance (youth show on Channel V); celebrity actor and Big Boss fame, Ajaz Khan; Chandni and Nishad Vaidya, the popular cine-couple from Amita Ka Amit. Dr. NIDA KHAN (PSD-Manager),SHAMSHUL HASAN (PPD-Manager), & FIRDOUS ANJUM (Officer PSD), from CARF were present for overall coordination.   Hopefully, the three day extravaganza at ethos 2014 added strokes of colors to the life of children supported by Cancer Aid & Research Foundation.
