NEW YEAR’S GIFT TO AN ORPHANAGE FROM INTRA-DISTRICT TWINS
Sunday, January 10, 2010
On 10th, January, 2010, Rotaract Club of Behala and Rotaract Club of Calcutta Lansdowne, the intra-district twins distributed stationary’s to an orphanage at lake gardens from 11am onwards through a joint project.
The two clubs came face to face for the first time in this New Year for a good cause by distributing 200 excise copies, pencils, erasers and sharpeners.
Both the clubs meet at a designated place and migrated towards the orphanage. After reaching the residential orphanage Mr. Chandan Das, co-coordinator welcomed us with New Year greetings. We were escorted and were served with tea. We then handed over the stationeries’ to him. He took us to a little tour of the orphanage and provided us with detailed information about the working and functioning of the home. The inmates were introduced to us and we interacted with them.
The inmates ranged from a 4year old to a 20 year old. The schooling is also provided by the orphanage with professional teacher’s educating the children. The home also provides computer and other extracurricular activities and program for the inmates. The school has different buildings for boys and girls, the different floors are divided according to age. A fully equipped gym is also their for the inmates. We befriended many and enjoyed a splendid sunny winter morning playing cricket and basketball with them inside the campus. We were surprised to see such good talents at the orphanage. There was a well constructed Basketball court inside the campus and students play pretty well and were above our expectations. It was real fun and everyone enjoyed at their fullest.
We really liked the way they are taking care for the unfortunate’s in the society and nurturing them and assisting them in setting goals and a good future for themselves. The coordinator thanked us all the way for our gratitude and compassion towards the society, to make it a better place to – play, learn, enjoy and live.
