Kya aap jaante hain ki Fun Republic naam ke Shopping Mall mein ek McDonald’s hai aur usmein ek bahut swaadisht Chicken McGrill naam ka burger milta hai….sirf 20 rupees…..??????

----- Oye Khottte iss wich keri navi gal hai….saari janta nu pata hai..te saareyaan ne khaya hai….

Ahaan!!....do you think so…well then talk to the kids who accompanied us to Fun Republic on Saturday Evening…..these little children beg right in front of the Mall..but hardly knew what went inside….untill today….

We Volunteer organized a day out for these little kids to let them know what “fun” really means. What is there apart from dust laden feet, gadding about in the scorching sun, sleeping empty stomach in the nights, bully fights on the roads, rudeness of the cops and a feeling of being “unwanted” in the world…

The event incharge Navnee and her team - Ankita, Auro, Prabhjot, did a splendid job while organizing and implementing the event.

New Clothes and Footwear where provided to the kids at the start of the event. The kids were instructed to take a bath and then come for the event. And the kids, very religiously, followed the instructions. The kids very neatly dressed in the new set of clothes….Wow!!...now that’s kool..

Combing their hair, buttoning their shirts, clipping their slipping pants from their skinny waist, the team did all they could do to make them look like some photo shoot models:0)

The excitement on their faces, the eyes teeming with enthusiasm and gaiety…..and that’s what is a million dollar scene….some where busy combing their hair while looking in the rear view mirrors of the parked cars…..who knows….may be some damsel would drool over them in the mall:)

So all set….with some minor instructions on the ways to behave and other tit bits….each kid was assigned to one volunteer….and then get set goo……here WE gooooo!!!

Crossing the security check…..and with their first ever step into the MALL….I could see the kids agape with astonishment and wonder……………Does such world exist???

Well yes…it does kiddy!!!

We roamed around inside the MALL…jumping into the lift at every floor and then making round trips on it….aaah!!...that made me remember my childhood days…how we badgered the lift wala bandaa!!

Showing the glitzy glamour of the world..the expensive shops…the games parlour…

Yeh!!..the kids enjoyed the games parlour the most….but obvious…driving Moto GT bikes, smashing cars with Preet helping them drive without licence and shooting the ducks…..where auro was busy playing her own gimics…..clicking snaps(her own) and then stupidly smiling to strike a pose…:)

Snaps snaps and then more snaps….jaise baaara hi aaa gayi ho…I would have some job to put them on the blog…

Ahh!!...now comes my favourite part….McDonald’s…..

The kids were served…Chicken McGrill ...I know they must have enjoyed the Burger..

It was fun, ebullience, frolic and loads of laughter everywhere to be seen and felt…

The vibes were just amazing….

So the burgers were thoooosofied pretty fast….aaah!...i forgot to mention something…

THE POOR VOLUNTEERS WERE JUST WATCHING THE FACES WHILE THE KIDS ENJOYED THE MEAL:0) BECHAAAREEE….EHEEHHEHEHEHE!!

Then the kids played some games, sang a few songs and mimicked some of the volunteers…..that was funny…hehehee!!....i’m loving it :)

Meanwhile….some softies came for the kids only….again the volunteers bechaare….kaam ke bhojh ke mare….thishshshhsh…kuch nahin milegaa…

The volunteers interacted with the kids…..talked to them..their likes and their dreams…and that’s what makes the day to remember…a day to celebrate ..a day to enjoy and bring smiles on the faces of these little angels…..that’s what is

“RED DAY”

Organizing Team : Navnee, Ankita, Auro, Prabhjot

@ Hasmeet

Great effort volunteers! I have never been part of any such kind of effort. It was a great experince. A little attempt is better than 10,000 words and those cute smiles on faces of kids have said all about success of event.
