To drive the Saksham Samarth (Capable-Able) initiative, a team of volunteers from the PMI Mumbai Chapter has collaborated with a national award-winning NGO, Saksham Trust. Saksham Samarth is PMI Mumbai Chapter’s Social Good Initiative that is committed to providing support to advance the UN 17 Sustainable Development Goals.

Through the collaboration, volunteers aim to digitalize books for their Saksham Digital Library to help visually-challenged individuals connect with the printed world, and gain more opportunities in education, employment, and other areas.

The team has completed proofreading two books - The UK Parliament by Moyra Grant and Poirot’s Early Cases by Agatha Christie.
