Padla village of Banswara district, #Rajasthan, is an agricultural area where people’s main source of income is farming. Unfortunately, water scarcity and the challenges it brings led many of the locals work as laborers as well. But due to the lockdown, they were left unemployed. Their children used to go to maabadi (a center for education, different from a school) which has been established for 5 years. All this while, these kids never had a chance to own a school bag, stationery or toys of their own. After a survey, this story was shared with Team #Goonj and thus, under the #S2S (School to School) initiative, we reached school bags, masks, and toys to 36 kids coming to the maabadi. Their thrill knew no bounds. However, we have to say, these bags and toys not just made these children happy but also filled our hearts with pure joy.
This made our souls happy…
