Yes we r privileged to go to school
And we least expect was we get purified water
Clean classrooms, Proper sitting arrangements
Clean toilets n Obviously electricity through which we run tube lights n fans, And mostly we get everything & still had some complaints of watever we had.But what if I say tht students of a school which is situated in outskirts of Dahanu doesnt have all these things & only has hope tht someday they would b learning in a proper manner.
When SOCH and Annapurna group volunteers visited the school to get an exact idea of the situation we were stunned tht without having much they were still enthusiastic of learning.
With the thought Education for all 📖📝
SOCH And ANNAPURNA group decided tht we need to help the school with electricity which is must n least required. The local gram panchayat is helping the school with solar panel, But the solar panel requires batteries n invertor for smooth running of electicity .
We have zerod down on one quotation which is worth 80,000 ( for batteries, invertor n fitting charges )
We r also planning a basic health check up for school kids with the team of doctors who r helping us on humitarian grounds.
For the Entertainment part we have called upon a magician and a music system so tht the kids can dance and enjoy
We would b distributing food packets contaning samosa waffers fruti n a slice cake 🍰
The entire cost of this is Rs 1,00,000.
Hope to see all of us coming together for the betterment of kids and their future.

Yes, indeed it was a "happy diwali" for the team mates, donors & volunteers, with amazing stories & experiences to share this DIWALI.
Though divided we stood, yet united were we stretching from
colaba to Dahanu,
over 40 volunteers participated in a 3 day distribution drive.
4th, 5th, 6th, & 7th of November,
Divided into small sub teams, we stretched from spots where we found people who lived thier lives on streets, & small hutments. We just lightened the city of lights, with a small twinkling effort by spreading a smile & distributing sweets. A total of 2300 boxes was achieved only because of a supportive team working
We extend our sincere thanks to all the participants,
Be it our donors, well wishers, volunteers, preachers, family & friends
We would love to share our happiness with you
We have complied our joy in form small clip

An initiative by Annapurna group to celebrate diwali in it's true sense, by disturbing sweets & brining smiles on those faces who can not afford to buy sweets, the ones living hand to mouth, in huts, shanties & Streets of Mumbai City

It started with 550 boxes in 2015, which escalated to 1500 in 2016 & peaked 1800 boxes in 2017, from out skirts of Virar to interiors of colaba
With a helping hand from team & other associate groups of similar nature. It has now shaped up to be a mass event, where everyone can participate, donate, & volunteer. You all will be glad to know that with the past experiences & responses this time, the target number of sweet boxes to be distributed is 2000, which surely is an achievable one, with your kind support & desire to spread a smile.
One box of 270gms of assorted healthy sweet box costs rs 75/- only.

You may post your number of desired boxes
& also participate in the distribution drive in the diwali week

Donate a box
Spread a smile

Let's make diwali happy

SOCH, born with an idea to spread smiles, did manage to serve some smiles to these adorable darlings on it's 37th event petvets, Thane, which is a home & hospital to the strays, the petvets team does an amazing job of taking care of all thier requirements & medications, a few team mates had dog fright but, they were the ones who enjoyed the most. It was a blessed feeling to able to spread love & vibes to these super loving pals, & all this was so very much possible because of the efforts of Rajvi Mithani thanks for adding a beautiful chapter in the memories of SOCH,
We thank all the donors & team mates for being supportive as always.
