Inba Seva Sangam, a voluntary organisation, was established by the Belgian-born Mother Lea Provo in 1969 in Sevapur, Karur Dt, Tamil Nadu, South India. To acknowledge the ‘green’ work of Mother Lea Provo, we named the organisation the Lea Eco Club. The Club is involved in developing rural projects; one of these is the conservation of locally threatened flora and medicinal plants in AVCCE ECO GARDENS. We are working to involve the local community in the conservation of local biodiversity and the local area’s natural resources. Our College gives equal importance to sports as well as cultural activities. Students participate in various inter and intra college cultural.Extracurricular activities are conducted through various societies. Well equipped separate auditorium(PEKAK HALL) with all facilities like fine stage, Speakers, Mic, Projectors, musical instruments etc are utilized for the cultural activities. Students are given separate rooms for their cultural practices. Separate Cultural team members are working for the benefits of the students. Regular meetings will be conducted and the opportunities will be spread out for enhancing the cultural thirst of the students providing the path in various fields.
