Distribution of Branded Warm Clothes to Children

By Tabinda alkans Jaffery | project leader

December 01 2020, Muwakhat team distributed warm clothes to homeless children to save them from this harsh winter. The children were taken to a branded textile warehouse (Ismail Warehouse) to choose clothes of their own liking. This was a very emotional event for the Muwakhat team.

This was the 2^nd event by Muwakhat team done in a branded shop.

Highlights of the event “Distribution of Branded Warm Clothes to Homeless Children”:

Muwakhat team provided pick and drop service to the homeless children
They were all sanitized before getting together and entering the branded warehouse
All the social distancing rules were followed
This was 1^st time that these homeless children were given an opportunity to pick & choose clothes all by themselves (accompanied by volunteers in case of any help needed)
They were brought out of isolation and the spark of their smiles were very heart warming
They were empowered in choosing the dresses according to their own choices
After the distribution of clothes, the children were organized together for a group photo
They also showed their new clothes to their parents and the joy was very touching

What was distributed?

2 trousers, 2 jackets, gloves and a cap were given to every child of their own choice,
The total cost of the package was only $18,
but the happiness of the children was immeasurable

What was learned?

The children behaved very well when they were brought out from isolation
They are just normal human beings like any other child
It is proven that “Equality is Quality!”
The biggest achievement was priceless happiness of the children and their parents
Their confidence was boosted!
They were made aware about the COVID-19 safety measures
They explored their choices and had a great exposure experience

Way forward?

Muwakhat foundation is going to have an “Eggs Distribution Event” on 21^st December 2020
The aim is to provide homeless children with enough nutrition and warmth in this cold winter
There will be a shoes distribution activity, tent drive and blankets distribution event too
