Sishu Mangal Visit

Hi Everybody

Last Sunday we went to an orphan home called "Sishu Mangal". It is just beside the campus of "Kidwai centre for Oncology". Aided by Government of Karnataka it has around 25-30 little kids.

Pinaki-Da , my college senior called me up. I was very tired after a workshop on Rock Climbing. Still thought that it would be a very good exp and joined.

We took 1 almirah, some toys and some energy drinks with us. Could not really predict the situation beforehand. It was a real life situation of "resource crunch"; from every possible direction I could hear ... "Anna, ondu cycle......" (one cycle ....).
Actually we took only one cycle with us and there were so many and they were not ready to share.

So eventually Pinaki-Da and Mainak-Da went back, got some more toys, one more cycle and we were able to negotiate with this little fellows !

At last they seemed to be happy with our presence.... I had a long hour listening to all the rhymes and 1-2-3-4 and A-B-C-D......

rakesh, prabhu, saundarya, Shreya, Moulika, Rohan...... made my day so different!!

please wonderful ppl out there, think for these children, if everybody shares a little; it may change their life.
