Of the 22 chidlren who began the chenda practises 11 have finished the training and the initiation ceremony was conducted. The Mayor of the city and  tousim departements graced the occasion. They were plesantly surprised by the skill that the kids aquired so gracefully. A crowd of over 300 people participated in the initiation ceremony.

Regular practices and perforamnce by chidlren are still continuing. There is a lot of transformation among the chidlren who attended the chenda lessons and went through the rigour of continued practise. Chidlren have improved their attention and there is marked improvement in the academic performance among the children.

We have approached the resorts and hotels in Trivandrum to allow our children to perform during their welcome ceremonies as well as when they need to show case acultural extravagenza. The Leela Raviz hotel has already accepted our request and our chidlren have performed twice of which one was to welcome the West Indies cricket team! New opportunities and exposure for our kids.

Thank you for your contribution to make a difference in the lives of deprived children!
