It aims to develop sensible, empathetic, responsible and seasoned professionals.
ADOPTION OF UNDERPRIVILEGED INDIVIDUALS
The college has adopted a blind, handicapped young girl named Ms. Shabina Saifi, who is an extremely talented singer. Ms. Shabina is invited to IILM Lucknow to give singing performances before internal and external audiences. The college promotes her exceptional talent and also gives her a monthly stipend to sustain her basic expenses. In addition, the staff and students regularly collect funds to donate the same to her and other needy people. Funds collected through such internal donation drives have also been used to finance the annual education cost of underprivileged children, through Sarthak Foundation, an NGO working in the area of education.
SWACHCHTA PAKHWADA
Every year, the students of IILM Lucknow participate with enthusiasm in the Swachchta Pakhwada and spread the message of cleanliness amongst the general public living in Gomti Nagar, Lucknow.
