Umang 2024 was a two-day initiative dedicated to spreading joy and creating meaningful experiences for underprivileged children during the festive season. Rooted in inclusivity and compassion, this annual event brought together volunteers, partner organizations, and children for a celebration filled with learning, self-expression, and happiness. This year, we collaborated with Bhumi, an organization focused on holistic education, and Krushna, a small business specializing in handmade chocolates, to enhance the celebrations.
On December 25th, Umang began with a visit to Ghar Orphanage, where we interacted with and conducted a session for around50 orphaned girls. Nine dedicated volunteers and Team SGC organized engaging activities, including fun games, Christmas card-making, and a lively dance session. The day concluded with Christmas carols, chocolates, and gifts, creating a warm and festive atmosphere filled with joy and celebration.
On December 28th,we welcomed 70 underprivileged children to our hilltop campus for a day filled with outdoor games, creative activities, and celebrations. The day started with games like Red Light, Green Light, and Tug of War at Sandipani Grounds, followed by a hearty lunch in the campus mess. The post-lunch session featured a lively dance session and a talent show where children showcased their skills with enthusiasm and confidence. The event concluded with the distribution of gifts and handmade chocolates, leaving the children with unforgettable memories.
