Seva Utsav: Heartwarming festivities at Preet Paatshala, Gurgaon
Preet Paatshala, located amidst a less-privileged housing colony in Bakhtawar Chowk, Gurgaon is a non-formal learning centre for children of migrant workers. Since its inception in October 2021, it has served as a humane sanctuary for migrant workers and their children post COVID-19. The learning programme is now seamlessly managed by a dedicated teacher who devotes two hours every day, imparting basic education to the children, preparing them for future 'professional development' at other nonprofit/ government schools.
Satsang Seva Mission (SSM) volunteers at Delhi, in association with the 'The Gratitude Project' of the Kundan Trust for Education celebrated Sri M's 75th birthday with these children on 9 November 2024. The ambience was charged with melodious chants of the Guru Stuti and other bhajans sung by volunteers and children alike. The little ones were also educated on basic yoga asanas. The heartwarming festivities included distribution of nutritious food, thalis, and sweaters. The finale of the merriment was a MyTree plantation activity around the Pathshala.
