The Nongovernment Organization, Saathi -a brainchild by puniita Singh, supported by the eager students of carmel held its most recent attempt for the underprivillaged children ,today itself on 22nd august.

To discover their hidden talent saathi organised a drawing competition for the 300 slum children on the topic “raksha bandhan”. The competition was held in the GOVERNMENT MIDDLE SCHOOL, sector 52, itself .The students of the school were very happy to see the saathi members and were extremely excited to participate in the competition.

The latter had provided each and every student with a drawing sheet colours, and other materials required. Every single need of the school children were taken care by the saathi volunteers.Saathi members not only guided the children but also motivated and interacted with them through out the competition.As the competition ended ,the saathi team awarded the prizes to the top 3 winners and councellations with a lot of excitement and exuberance.

To bring joy to the students and to encourage them, biscuits and chocolate were also distributed. As the initiative was successful,each student along with the saathi members were filled with delight.

Kushboo a student from government middle school, said “all the didi’s are very good , they talk to us very nicely”

Neha another student of the school added”it was very nice. I enjoyed so much with the didi’s”
