“Strengthening ties”

Vol 4.3 July-September 2012
 
 
On 2nd August 2012, LIFE Trust celebrated "Raksha Bandhan" with 500 children of LIFE Trust’s partner institution, "The Children's Aid Society" (CAS). Workshops and activities were conducted at the CAS’s Observation Home at Umerkhadi that provides shelter and treatment to destitute, delinquent and victimised children. These children are between the age group of 4-17 years and are rendered treatment for any illness. Efforts are also made to reunite them with their families.
As part of this partnership, LIFE Trust is now devoted to educating and entertaining these children with a view to improve their conduct. On Raksha Bandhan day, Rakhis were tied to the boys by the girls of the institution and the LIFE Trust staff.  All Rakhis were personally made by the adolescent girl groups LIFE Trust works with. The Chief Guest at the event was Amruda Nair of the Leela Hospitality Group and Marathon Runner for LIFE Trust.
