On March 6, 2009 in my company we celebrated Women’s Day in advance. Actually the celebration planned in our head office included inter-entity dance competition and a lecture on Women empowerment.
But all the women in my office wanted to spend the day more meaningfully. So we decided to make a difference in lives of small kids of all the laborers who are working on the construction site in our office premises.
The idea was quickly accepted by our Director and supported us by donating note books & stationary for school going kids and painting books & crayons for non school going kids.
All the women contributed for the biscuits & chocolates for those kids.
We all gathered together and we handed over the sweets & gifts to all the kids. The kids were very delighted. They expressed their gratitude by thanking us in “ENGLISH”. These kids usually speak Marathi / Kanadi / Hindi. So for them speaking in English is like they have entered into Elite Class. That shows how much overwhelmed were they with gratitude.
