Chennai: 707 Bedkits on February 7

From Chennai 2011

Our location today was at the Sarada Vidyalaya Girl's Higher Secondary School whose student body is composed of 1500 girls in this location and further away a boys' campus of 1500 students.

The girls choosen to assist in the distribution were the most intelligent, sweet, beautiful teenagers you could ever hope to meet. The bedkit recipients were positioned for photos, guided around and assisted with the heavy bedkits in a courteous, motherly way. India's future is promising with such excellent educated young woman.

The distribution of 707 bedkits went smoothly and after a bag lunch we were treated to singing and dancing presentations under the direction of the school's music teacher.

Everywhere we have travelled teachers, principals, parents, and Rotary club members praise Canadians for their generosity, compassion, and love for their children.

It was such a delightful day.
