Our SCAW Team’s first day of distribution
was held at the Jaigopal Garodia Vivekananda Viyalaya Private School in
Avadi. The school grounds were a perfect
place to look after the 682 children who were bussed into the school from
outside the area to receive their bedkits.
The SCAW Team made up of experienced
travelling volunteers took little time to set up and take the pictures of the
children.
But, this article is focused on the
volunteers who helped the Rotary Club of Ambattur and the SCAW Team. These wonderful volunteers were attendees of
the school and were in their teens.
Their commitment throughout the day was outstanding and the smiles of
the children receiving the bedkits were a direct result of the efforts of these
young people. In addition, a number of
the teachers were involved and made the communication with the children much
more effective.
Our hats are off to our fellow volunteers
seen in the photos that follow! 682 children were blessed today and we were
blessed to be a part of this wonderful example of young people helping others.
