Pune: Day 4

From Pune 2011

We have such fun reading each and every label! From beautiful sentiments like "Thanks and Peace," "Celebrating 50 years of friendship," and "Follow your dreams," to seeing the places from which the donations have originated (Vancouver, Australia, Winipeg, Etobicoke ...) to the varieties of individuals and organizations that have purchased bedkits.

We often wish we knew the stories of the labels, how the donor came to hear about Sleeping Children and take action. Today we had the pleasure of knowing the story of a few of the labels- the labels from the Oakville Speed Skating Club.

From Pune 2011

We know that many of the skaters from the club are tracking our trip so we want to let them know how their kind actions made sixteen kids in India very, very happy.

This Christmas, the Club chose to support SCAW in lieu of Christmas gifts for the coaches. Today we gave out the sixteen bedits that the Oakville skaters had purchased for the kids in this village. We brought the Oakville Speed Skating club banner with us and had the children sign their name to it.

Cheers to the Oakville Speed Skating Club for making a difference in the lives of children!

Team Pune, 2011
