It was in March 2022, when the residents of Silvercity decided to put to good use the funds collected via Sunshine Society’s initiative “Raddi Collection”. Taking inspiration from Sh. Vinod
Gupta, who started the study center in Sector-50 community center, the residents got together to start the After School Study center in Sector-93. The initiating team led by Nirupma, Anupama, Rijita, Vinita, Sujata, Dipali and Bandita met the Sh. Pandey, president of Super MIG flats RWA, to seek permission to start the After School Study center at the community center for the first generational learners of Gejha village children. After the successful meeting, we started the study center in March 2022.
After the initial set of 25 children, there were so many children who wanted to come to study from the enthusiastic teachers who decided to donate their time and efforts towards making India educated.
As we complete one year of being enriched by children from Gejha village, of being a part of their efforts and smiles, of their enthusiasm, the volunteers teaching them pledge to guide them to seek knowledge to understand their syllabus and to study to empower their lives and the lives of people around them. It is only because of volunteer teachers from Silvercity like Nirupma, Seema, Rijita, Sunaina, Bandita, Naghma, Saba, Vinod, Sudhir, Tanvi, Aruna, Neeta, Preeti, Archana and so many volunteer students from University and schools in Noida that we have been able to teach the children regularly. Donors from all walks of life never let us feel the shortage items required for our children – stationery, eatables, consumables and other relevant items like a TV screen!
Sustainability comes from the Raddi collection that is supported by Dipali, Chaitali, Seema, Anupama, Rijita and so many more…
As we complete one year of such a beautiful purpose in Sector 93, we take the children to the Park to emphasise the importance of physical activity along with academic studies and who better to guide them than Binod Bhadri of Bmilitary Fit. Who not just ensured that children played team games but also explained the importance of being physically active to the volunteer teachers present.
Enjoy the pictures of a beautiful initiative which has such beautiful people involved!
