Most of you will be knowing that AFNA is supporting our 'Spreading
Sunshine' project.  The primary aim of 'Spreading Sunshine' is to try
to improve the 'quality of life' of the marginalised people living in
residential social welfare institutions like orphanages,  destitute homes
etc. ,  by mobilising support from the public. We make it a point to visit
some of these homes during Dewali,  both the Bihus and Holi,  with
appropriate gifts.  This time, we visited 6 institutions with Dewali gifts
( diyas,  xolitha, jolokiya bombs, phuljaris, chakris etc ), 
and,  some clothes ( old, but in good condition ).  The children of
course were thrilled to see us.  What made our day was that they said that
they were expecting us with the gifts.  We were happy that we did
not fail their expectations  ---  and for that, we have to
thank AFNA,  and,   friends of mine who give me a vehicle and a
driver to deliver the items in these institutions  ( because of the
increasing traffic in Guwahati,  I have started requesting my friends for
a vehicle ). These gifts at the time of these festivals is a very big
support for them  ---  more emotionally,  than in value.

 

I thank AFNA on behalf of all the beneficiaries.  As a facilitator
of the project,  it has been an enriching experience for me. 
Therefore,  I am grateful and thankful too.

 

With best wishes,

 

Kaushik  das
