All the members of the Dubois friends have committed themselves to serve the society. During the inaugural, the Dubois Friends donated a prosthetic leg to Sulaiman who had lost his leg 12 years ago while woking in a Timber factory. Now the DF has handed over the car keys to the Sahodaya. This shows their concern towards the society. We should appreciate the service of these youth who have dedicated themselves to the betterment of the society. Once again I wish all the members of Dubois Friends all the success and let God Bless them all.”
