Event Purpose and Impact
Many children at orphanages struggle to access basic necessities, often finding it hard to meet their everyday needs. The goal of this IYDF event was not only to supply necessary learning materials and snacks but also to raise awareness about supporting vulnerable children. Reflecting on the event, Dr. Ashutosh Dubey remarked, "It is crucial to help orphans who struggle with basic needs like food and shelter, as these are the foundations for them to grow, learn, and thrive."
This initiative extended beyond meeting basic needs; it supported the children emotionally and socially, helping them feel valued and cared for. The provision of essential resources helped the children build confidence, while the interaction from volunteers fostered feelings of hope for the future.
Donations and Activities
During the event, IYDF and Elite Speech and Hearing Care Clinic prepared an array of educational materials and snacks for the children. These included writing supplies like pens and pencils, erasers, sharpeners, and notebooks of various sizes. Additionally, the children received puzzles, stickers, and geometry kits, along with other learning resources such as drawing books and globes. Alongside these items, the children were treated to small snack boxes, which were shared during the activity sessions.
The children enthusiastically welcomed the supplies, especially the educational materials that enhanced their learning. Deepak (Anna) Chakranarayan, the director of Emmanuel Orphanage, expressed gratitude: "We are deeply thankful to IYDF and Elite Speech and Hearing Care Clinic.
