In collaboration with Discover India and Service Learning, AISC will support a local school in Ladakh by selling a 6 pack of notecards or a 12 pack of postcards for Rs. 400. Each card has a different photograph taken by students and teachers on a recent discover India trip to Ladakh. They will be
on sale in the iHub and the Madras cafe. The students are also hoping to sell the cards at the
