(St.Ann’s Helping Hands & Reaching Arms) is an outreach program for students to understand the communities around them, identify themselves with its aspirations, needs, problems, resources and to reach out with a helping hand.

Over the years the involvement, commitment, the range of activities have grown exponentially with club such as Rotaract club of St.Ann’s College under the umbrella of SAHHARA.
