whole process was time consuming. This helped us to determine which method our team should
adopt to gain maximum result at lesser duration of time. Yes it took some time but at last we
shortlisted some plans to do work with better efficiency. Some of the measures taken by us were:
we distributed colourful pen that carries a sign. Therefore, this method or skill helped our team to
raise fund from public. The sign gave the message that yes we stand together for a good cause.
