Event on May 23, 2010: Vatsalya Foundation

 The next Kshana Event is being held at Vatsalya Foundation. The event is scheduled on 23rd May 2010. The event timings are 11 am to 4 pm. We will be having the event for around 80 to 100 children between the age group of 6 to16, who are either street children or have a single parent.

 We are going to organize a collage making competition for the kids where we will be giving them a socially relevant theme like ‘Save Trees’. We are also going to have some fun filled games and activities, which will be followed by music and providing a light snack.  The last and the most exciting part is going to be - Giving away the presents!!!! :)

Manav Seva Sangh- Old age home

Kshana has kick-started the summer with an event at Manav Seva Sangh’s old age home. We were greeted with about 50 odd toothy smiling oldies; who were eagerly awaiting our arrival.

 

As the clock struck 4pm; we set up the projector and dimmed the lights. And the much awaited fun-filled movie ‘Golmaal’ began. We specially selected an old movie so that our enthusiastic audience would connect to it.

And keeping all their aches, pains and ailments aside they were engrossed in the movie. They laughed and cried with Amol Plekar and Utpal Dutt.

 

It was indeed a sight to see.

 

After the movie they were served ‘Rainbow sandwiches’ prepared by our very own Kshana team with Frooti. We too had a blast in the kitchen.

 

They enthusiastically posed for pictures with us. (Do check the link). After another round of toothy smiles they bid us good-bye only to tell us that they’d wait for more of these events in the future.
