Triple Celebration For Pankhudi

Hi all..

Wish you all a very very very Happy Diwali..

We have three special occasions coming up

1) Festival of Lights - Diwali (November 8)
2) Children's Day (November 14)
3) Pankhudi Team Day (November 19)

In order to celebrate all this we are planning to have celebrations in an orphanage on November 18th (Sunday) from Morning 10 - 6. We shall plan to have lunch with the children itself. Please let us know your availability.


Planned Activities:

1) Distribution of Sweets
2) Games
3) Competitions for the children.

You are very welcome for any new activities.

Right now I am contacting the orphanages for schedule. Will keep you informed.

Please give your comments and suggestions. Let us make the day wonderful...

As an folow up to this i have spoken with two orphanages

1) New Life Orphanage - Eraiyoor Village
- This is the place where we had Independece day Celebration. Right now they dont have caterers and so they said that we cant provide food for more than 10 volnteers. If needed you arrange for the entire group (120 over there + our volunteers) from external caterers. The problem with this Orphanage is that there is no transport available here except for one bus which comes rarely in the morning. We need to arrange a private van + food problem this time. But we have good rapport with the care taker and the children over there. It is a very nice village which always welcome us with open hands.

2) Balagurukulam Orphanage - Kalikuppam Village - http://www.balagurukulam.org

- This is a new place for Pankhudi. I came to know about this through Net only Courtesy: Yahoo (http://in.answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20070825132406AANunuh ) plus through my office colleagues who are also visiting there. According to them it is an absolutely nice place to celebrate and the care taker is very kind hearted. There is not much transport problem for this village (It is 5-6 kms from Ambattur. 20 kms from City) and i havent spoken about lunch and other details. I have spoken to the volunteer of Sneham ( another NGO) who visits there. She said she can confirm me once i have finalized my plans.

So please respond to this post so that i can confirm as soon as possible. or mail me @ divya.senthu@gmail.com

Regards,Divya.S
