Community Awareness on Helen Keller Day

By Geetika Chandra | Development Manager and PR

Your support through valuable donations has helped us to carry on with our regular activities of academic help to children with disabilities as well as in conducting special events for children  leaving positive  impact on them and  their parents.

Aaina celebrated Helen Keller Day on June 27, 2018 with children with disabilities visiting center and their parents. The objective was not to make it just a onetime event but to be inspired by the contribution of the amous personality Helen Keller towards the deaf blind communities. Moreover,  create awareness regarding the rights of people with disabilities.

A human chain of 30 children in front of a popular Mall in the city was organized spreading the message of ability and rights. Games were organized such as passing the ball and singing songs. Snacks and soft drinks were prepared for the guests. It was also a time for the parents of the children with disabilities to reflect on there relationship with Aaina and what their views about their children’s progress.

One of the mother’s stated, “for me, the fact that my child is having good time with his friends is enough. He used to be at home most of the time. Now he is going out, learning things in a better way. This makes me very happy. I do not want him to be left out and remain dependent after we pass away”. The staff of center and Aaina office were also present to  celebrate and exchange words of joy and concerns of the parents and children if any”.

It has been your contant support that encourages us to provide need based help to the children and conduct programs that may inspire them in the long run. Please continue the hand holding and also share the project with your dear friends.

Once again thanks for contributing towards a positive change.
