Shillong: On the occasion of Deepawali, SPARK took the initiative to organise a programme for the underprivileged children with the prime objective to make them enjoy the festival and experience it as they hardly get an opportunity to witness such occasion as they have to work to support their families and in the process, their precious childhood is lost.
SPARK hopes that this Diwali all the evil ends and brings goodness especially in the lives of all the underpriviledged children.
During the celebration, lamps were lit by the children with a strong believe that its light will bring brightness in the life of every child.The children recited a prayer asking for God’s blessing and support.
Thereafter, Founder & President of SPARK Shima Modak acquainted the children about the essence of Diwali and the purpose of celebrating the same altogether without any kind of discrimination or individual differences.
Other attractions of the programme were some games, dance performance and other recreational activities. The children also made colourful rangoli and burnt some child-friendly soundless crackers under the care of teachers.
Thereafter, food was provided to all the children. Altogether more than 200 children participated in the programme at Anjali, Mawlynrei and Rangmen Centres of SPARK.
