The Annapoorna team from JP Nagar in Bangalore has served breakfast to the Ragigudda slum children for the past three years. They surprised the children with a two-day programme filled with fun and love.

 

The children were engaged in a number of activities ranging across value based games, value based stories, crafts and outdoor games. Apart from this, the children joined hands with the Annapoorna team in a public park cleaning (with the necessary hygiene kits) and in planting trees. The children thereby learnt the importance of cleanliness and hygiene.

 

The highlight of the two-day camp was the 'Matru-Vandana' (revering one's mother) Programme. As a slum known to have a good mix of families across religions and other demographics, the Matru-Vandana Programme was a great sight to watch; where the children in their own ways expressed their deep love for their mothers in their own styles. The children made some flower decorations for their mothersand also enacted a drama highlighting the 'importance of respecting parents'.

 

Both days started with a sumptuous breakfast and were wrapped up after a delicious lunch for one and all!
