The OSA is also launching an application called "Assist Me" on the same day. The application helps alert family and friends in emergency situations and can be used on major smart phones including iPhone, Android, Blackberry and Windows.

To support OSA in the cause, the Asian Education Group and Marwah Studios, a creative enterprise, is organising a 100-poster exhibition celebrating 100 years of Indian cinema at the same venue. Two short films by students of the Asian Education Group will also be screened at the event.
