On the Advent of Children’s day some volunteers came to it on 14th November, on the birthday of our very own former Prime Minister Jawahar Lal Nehru, fondly known as Chacha Nehru.
He emphasized the importance of giving love and care to children as they are the future of the nation & in the truest sense of the aforesaid Round Table India, a Non-Governmental institution which works for the development of the under privileged, organised a wonderful event called ‘Taare Zameen Par’ here in the city at Swabhumi, Kolkata.
Children from the marginalized section of the society were brought together with help of many Activity partners including iVolunteer. Our very own Tanveer led the show for iVolunteer.
The celebration kicked off in a very unique way− a drawing competition for approximately 2000 children was setup to showcase their talent along with Magic show, Puppet show, Joy rides – Ball pool and jumping ring, Distribution of Biscuits, Snacks, Fruits, Lunch, Ice creams, goodie bags to the kids.
This was a wonderful initiative by the organizers that was led by volunteers who share love with these underprivileged children. That’s the power of volunteerism!
