We again planted 8 new Badam Plants. The Kids supported us really very well and we enjoyed a lot doing this activity with them. They will take care of the plants as these are planted near their homes.

This recurring project is held every Sunday at Chhani Jakat Naka, where the Rotaract volunteers not just feed a healthy meal on a Sunday morning to the underprivileged children but also teach them basic Maths, Gujarati and English for at least 2 hours. The children have to be literally convinced, but it is well worth the effort. This month it was conducted on ,4^th, 11^th, 18^th and 25^th July.

Also on July 11, the Rotaractors and some students of Zydus Medical College, Dahod joined hands for the noble cause of teaching fundamental education and tried digital way of learning by using laptop and mobile devices. They used interesting audio-visual method to engage the students.

This month it was conducted on 1^st, 8^th, 15^th & 29^th of August at Chhani, Vadodara & Dahod Camp. Above Images were taken on August 8, 2021.

Maybe few of these young minds can be Future teachers! Who knows! We can't leave them without letting them touch this brilliant creation of humans.

Schools are opening in the city & our camp's "Not kids anymore" don't want those horizontal bags now (you know that old fashioned 💼) Also, to mark the reopening of schools after such a long time; just as your parents did for you to go to school at 6, we did need something to motivate them to go as well. Nevertheless, they liked these waterproof laptop bags. Thanks to our Donor who would like to be anonymous.

The Rotaractors & Volunteers at our Dahod Camp used the parent Rotary Club Sponsored Chatur Brain Preschool learning kit to make teaching & learning more fulfilling. Rotaract Club has decided to do this activity under the name of “Project Kalapak”. Kalapak means - a person who posses skills; as our goal is to enhance their skills for imagination, learning & speaking. Under this Project, we aim to convert our Old Camps into Sweet Pre Schools. The kit is specially designed containing charts, activities & many more things. This has definitely encouraged our Rotaractors & Volunteers to teach like a pro.

The beginning of year has begun with a project of Self Protection. Mask can help us to prevent the spread of COVID-19 Virus but we thought, a sweater can prevent someone to make a new way for spread, which is cold. From the support of Happy Faces Vadodara & Mr. Piyush Khare, we had donated some 30 Sweaters at our Nimnalia, Dahod Camp this month.

How can we not meet on Uttrayan! KAIPO CHHE!
