The Class 10 student at Church Park School in the city decided to do a digital art workshop to raise funds for COVID-19 relief.
Isha also conducts workshops to support children. She doodles, sketches and paints and does weekly live stream on Youtube.
She raised Rs 25,000 in the workshop and donated COVID-19 supplies to Adyar Cancer Institute’s children’s section with the help of the Rotary Club of Madras Central. Further, the executive director of BNI Chennai, K Sunil, supported her workshop to raise funds for visually impaired infants.
Isha donated Rs 20,000 to Gurupriya Vision Research Foundation Project and helped a newborn undergo a procedure to prevent blindness.

“It is highly encouraging to be able to help children. Though there is a lot of support and appreciation that comes my way, nothing equals the satisfaction of being able to support those who need medical attention. I want to pursue digital art as a career and help people through such fundraisers,” said Isha.
