Dear friends, thank you for supporting our initiative to provide dresses to our children. We raised around $120. Since winter has arrived, we used this funding for providing woolen clothing to all our children.
Global Giving has been helping us raise funds for a lot of our activities. Through your support, we are able to provide good support to more than 200 children.
On August 15, our children attended a cultural event called Bandhan conducted by Indian School of Business.
Our children celebrated festivals like Rakshabandhan, Ganesh Chaturthi and Diwali with the usual fervor.
We conducted a Robotics class, Personality Development session as well Legal Awareness Programs for our children in the new campus.
We have recently provided for bunk beds for all our children. For the first time since Sphoorti was established, our children are sleeping on a mattress and bed.
Construction in the top floor has reached final stages of completion. Because of disturbances from local village politicians, there was a temporary delay for three months. After all the rooms are completed, we will have a functional library, a computer lab and a medical room.
The hostel block has been partitioned into separate spaces for boys and girls. There is ample space for children to play in the open. We have planted about 60 saplings along the compound wall.
We are also planning to set up a Reverse Osmosis facility for safer drinking water.
In the next two years, Sphoorti will set up an exclusive campus for boys in a different location.
This year too, Sphoorti has received recognition as Top Rated Nonprofit by Greatnonprofits.org as well aKarmaveer award from a Delhi-based organization.
