ART AND JOY OF GIVING
by JBM Global TeacherStudents
of JBM wholehearted participated in the drive – “Be the Santa” joint initiative
& annual drive held in partnership with Nidhi Foundation of giving away to
needy what we no longer need.
In top nursery school of Noida,
it is believed sharing is a vital life skill for children & as to become
better human beings. This drive gave an ample opportunity to the students to
enjoy the joy of sharing. JBM got an overwhelming response from the students
& parents. How else they get sensitized to the trials & tribulations of
less fortunate it is a small step to help them. Value of generosity gives
nothing but satisfaction to the receiver as well as the giver. Children have to
be sensitized towards noble causes by helping the underprivileged.
“The simplest act of kindness is by far more powerful than a
thousand bowing in prayer”. Let’s give them the comfort of playing with your
child’s discarded toys comfort of warmth by your warm clothes & comfort of
sleep with your old blankets & quilts. It is the virtuous deed that enables
the young & impressionable minds to empathize with those in need. The warm
hug shared by us with the unfortunate made us realize that we must count our
blessings. The school always gets complete support from the student’s parents
& teachers in any project. We undertake to inculcate the feeling of sharing
& caring.
Carrying it forward to 2018 when the world is ringing in New
Year. We found a bit of our old stuff ‘we’ have if shared with ‘have not’s’
bring the surge of new joy & satisfaction on the faces. In the cold dreary
nights of winter, there are shivering people found on the footpaths, railway
& bus platforms without shelter. School in expressway Noida reacted
sharply to the newspaper report of a 42-year-old man starving to death in the
state where the school is located i.e. U.P on closer scrutiny it was found that
man was in bad health & paralyzed hence did not have access to food as he
could not move out of his house. It was also reported that it was not only Nem
Chand who died of hunger even his mother Khilo Devi aged 82 years had nothing
to eat at home except random chappatis coming from neighbors once a week or so.
So children of particular class & section were motivated to
identify similar cases as their holiday project in the nearby vicinity &
request their parents to reach out to them with whatever help was possible.
It is the joint responsibility of schools & community to
ensure that no one dies of hunger for food in today’s day & age. We can
contain wastage made during wedding celebrations, birthdays & in various
eateries & hotels pass the benefits to those pining for a square meal. The
virtue of empathy would be taken forward by this school on expressway Noida would
be taken up in junior classes with one point agenda “No waste, let other’s
taste”.
