HE REFUSED TO ACCEPT THE DONATED BLANKET : PICS & REPORT OF BLANKET DISTRIBUTION ON MAKAR SANKRANTI..

15th January, 2016 was published in various newspapers as the coldest day of the season so far and was being celebrated as Makar Sankranti across the nation. On this challenging and auspicious day, the volunteers of Parivartan Club, a CSR initiative of ITS – The Education Group, distributed the blankets to the needy and the poor people struggling to keep themselves alive in the freezing winds.
Volunteers of the day – Aanchal Grover, Amaan Siddiqui, Sagnick Das, Nikunj and Satender Rana started around 3:00 pm with the faculty coordinator Prof. Gopal Krishna Dwivedi and covered almost all directions and corners of the city from Dilshad Garden to Meerut Road, Karehda village, Raj Nagar Extension, Sahibabad Naveen Mandi Sthal, Vasundhara, Lohia Nagar, Patel Nagar, Shastri Nagar, New Bus Stand Ghaziabad, Old Bus Stand Ghaziabad and various other places of the city. The distribution took around 6 to 8 hours, starting in the afternoon and continuing till late night.
Out of countless stories of amazement, tears and blessings, two stories are worth special mention. Near L. R. College, Sahibabad, the volunteers spotted a cobbler, wearing extremely insufficient clothes. They approached him and asked if he would like to have a blanket, free of cost. The cobbler, full of self esteem, smiled and denied to accept it. The volunteers were amazed to see that our country still has such people with this much sense of self-respect in spite of their obvious poverty.
Another emotional moment was when the volunteers went deep down the road and reached a vast plain near Haj House on G.T. Road. There were temporary shelters built of stacked bricks in which ladies were struggling to survive holding their 2-3 years old children in the thin and torn shawls. They moment they spotted the Parivartan volunteers with blankets, they felt like the angels themselves have landed to save their souls.
This noble task ended with the utmost satisfaction, unforgettable experiences and the countless blessings. The blankets were bought with the money donated by the students, faculty and staff members of ITS, Ghaziabad.

3rd January, 2016 activities of ‘Parivartan’, the Slum Education Programme, a CSR initiative of ITS, Ghaziabad celebrated the beginning of the New Year by distributing hundreds of clothes and toys to slum children.

Volunteers of the day – Priyanka Gupta, Aman Jaiswal, Akhilesh Sharma, Tushar Gupta, Sher Singh Chauhan, Ankur Agarwal, Sagnick Das , Akansha Saxena and Satender Rana started the class with the regular check of the hygiene and personal grooming of the slum children.
At the Sahibabad slum, it was a big pleasant surprise for all – the children, their parents, the passersby and even the fire brigade staff – who saw the big sacs full of clothes and toys being unloaded from the car of Parivartan volunteers. After the short revision of the previous lessons, the distribution of the donated clothes started. All little hands were up to grab their favourite colours and shapes. The grownup children were more interested for the clothes whereas the small children preferred toys.
At the Vasundhara slum, the distribution of clothes started immediately after reaching the venue. To the surprise of the volunteers, within 10 minutes, more than150 children were struggling in the queues to get their fair share. Many ladies and gents residing in the area also expressed their choices and expectations which were paid sufficient heed resulting in smiles and blessings.
