Donate clothes,toys,bicycles for the Anaganwadi children




Friends, while working on field it has been felt strongly that the kids of the villages won't have anything for their reecreation.They used to go to the Anganwadi Centre just for the sake of food which is distributed there.After receiving the food they used to come back.They won't have toys , colours or any other material which could keep them engaged. While the scenario is different in the cities.The kids have everything starting from the toys to video games , cream to cakes, bicycles to bikes and what not .While the children of the village is not in a position to have even the ice - lolly .They won't have proper clothes & chappals to wear.Recently on 21.05.09 while I had been to an Anganwadi Centre , I was surprised to see that one girl child was wearing half sweater in this summer season when the temperature was running between 26 to 42 degree celcius .She won't have any other dress to wear.This is really a great dilemma.Few images of the Anganwadi visited on 21.05.09 are uploaded here.
To counter this problem it has been decided that the village Anganwadi needs to be made child friendly .Aham Bhumika , Bhopal will initially take up one Anganwadi located in village Kajalikhera , district Bhopal for this purpose.The children of the said Anganwadi will be provided toys ,clothes, wax colours , little bicycles etc. to make the enviornment child friendly.This will encourage the children to spend more time in the Anganwadi Centre.Anyone who wish to join in this venture with us is most welcome.If you want to donate the toys , clothes, bicycles , colours , copies , pencils etc. than please contact us . Oue e-mail address is ahambhumika@yahoo.co.in or subrat.goswami@yahoo.com and cell number is 9826472718 ( Mr. Subrat Goswami )

A look at the experiences during donate bicycle camapign


Friends , as stated earlier I would like to narrate few experiences during our ongoing donate bicycle campaign in Bhopal.I would like to begin with Rishi Raj Singh . He is the youngest donor so far .Rishi Raj Singh lives in Harshvardhan Nagar , Bhopal . He learnt about our donate bicycle camapign from his teacher.He immediately decided to donate his bicycle which he used to attend the tution classes. On very next day he came and said to his teacher that he is leaving his bicycle with her to hand over the same to us. The story won't ends here.With in few days he arranged one more bicycle for this campaign . This time it was one of his friend. He told his teacher to infom us to lift that bicycle from Vaishali Nagar . This one belongs to the child of Mr. N. S. Sengar who lives in Vaishali Nagar.Mr. Sengar gladly handed over us the bicycle stating that Rishi had requested him to donate this bicycle.And you know what is most intersting in this whole episode ? We have yet to met Rishi Raj Singh to thank him.We have not met him but we respect his feeling .We need such people .The help of such type of people is essentailly required for this sort of campaign .

Next time we will tell you about one person who as so far arranged 9 bicycles for this campaign.

Please be with us . We are collecting old ,lying unutilized bicycles . After repair we will give them to the children of the village so that they won't have to cover long distances on foot to attend the school.
