Social Service Day, 2nd October
On the 2nd of October, Gandhi Jayanti, DC celebrated The Social Service Day with the kids of VAMA School, run by an NGO, for underprivileged kids who joined us in the celebration. The day was action-packed and energetic with a lot of activities taking place in the school campus. Dalians gave a warm welcome to the VAMA kids who came excited for the workshops. There were 50 Vama kids along with 4 escorts, 19 Dalians and SSL head accompanying them.
All students were assembled at CTDC for a workshop on paper-bag and envelope making. We could see the enthusiasm filled all around with the Dalians and VAMA kids enjoying the workshop together and building creativity in their work. The workshop helped them acquire skills of reusing old newspaper and papers and selling them.
The children were provided with snacks in between the workshop and were also made to print their hands on the poster that Dalians made as a remembrance of the first ever DC Social Service Day. Soon after the workshop VAMA kids presented a patriotic song before us which filled the air with goodness which was awaited by Principal ma’am as well. The children also made cards for all of us which was very overwhelming.
In the end, it was very hard to say goodbye to such a delightful bunch of kids, so we gave a token to all the escorts and principal of school, and chocolates and gifts to the kids. The celebration concluded with a group photograph.
