Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], October 15: The International Youth Development Foundation (IYDF), in collaboration with local company Wish-Box Events, organized a heartwarming event for children in the Gujjar Vasti community near Pune, Maharashtra. The event aimed to provide essential supplies and educational materials to underprivileged children, while also offering interactive activities to inspire them to dream big. The initiative brought much-needed support to children living in challenging conditions, offering them encouragement and a sense of hope.
The event, spearheaded by Tapan Sushil Singha, founder of Wish-Box Events, and fully supported by IYDF, sought to remind these children that they are not forgotten. Held in Gujjar Vasti, the event saw the participation of 22 local children. IYDF and Wish-Box Events volunteers spent the evening engaging with the children, organizing interactive sessions to encourage them to share their dreams and imagine a brighter future.
Delivering Essential Supplies and Spreading Warmth
During the event, the volunteers distributed essential supplies and educational materials to each child. The items included 22 water bottles, 22 lunch boxes, 22 notebooks, and 25 pens. In addition, organizers provided a variety of toys and games such as Rubik’s cubes, footballs, coloring pencils, and cartoon-themed water bottles to spark the children’s creativity and imagination.
In a special gesture, each child was also given a 1kg bag of rice and flour to help alleviate the financial burden on their families. The team of volunteers, including Akshay Satpe, Vivek Patil, Shyamli, Omkar Suryawanshi, and Kajal Patil, devoted their time and energy to ensuring the children felt supported and cared for. Beyond the material donations, the volunteers planned engaging activities, creating a joyful atmosphere that left lasting smiles on the children’s faces.
Learning Through Play: Drawing and Dream Sharing
One of the highlights of the event was an interactive session where children were encouraged to draw and share their dreams. Using art supplies provided by the volunteers, the children drew vivid pictures of their aspirations–whether it was becoming doctors, teachers, engineers, or other professions, their visions for the future were filled with optimism.
Speaking at the event, Tapan Sushil Singha, founder of Wish-Box Events, shared: “Today, we wanted to do more than just provide these children with essential supplies. We aimed to inspire them through interactive activities and help them build confidence in their future. Although their lives may be filled with challenges, their eyes are full of hope and dreams for a brighter tomorrow. These children are eager to learn and determined to change their lives. Our goal is to show them that they are not alone on this journey.”
Supporting Vulnerable Children: Building a Better Tomorrow
Ravindra Gaikwad, the local leader who helped organize the event, noted: “Our children are eager for educational opportunities and the attention of society. We are incredibly grateful to IYDF and Wish-Box Events for organizing this event, which brought not only material support but also emotional encouragement and motivation to our children.”
The event was much more than a simple donation drive. It was a testament to the support and care these children need from society. Through heartfelt conversations, the volunteers learned that each child had their own unique dreams and aspirations, and they all hoped to transform their futures through education and hard work. Despite the hardships they face, the children maintain an optimistic attitude, eagerly looking forward to the opportunities that may come their way. The volunteers from IYDF and Wish-Box Events were deeply moved by the strength and spirit of these children.
Ongoing Support and Future Plans
The event concluded in a warm and uplifting atmosphere, but the support from IYDF and Wish-Box Events doesn’t stop here. Looking ahead, IYDF plans to strengthen its collaboration with local non-profit organizations, continuing to provide critical resources and support to underprivileged children, helping them build a brighter future.
“IYDF firmly believes that every child should have the right to pursue their dreams. Through today’s event, we hope to have brought a glimmer of light into these children’s lives, showing them that change is possible. We will continue our efforts to support vulnerable children across the world,” said a spokesperson from IYDF.
