The inmates of Thritwa ashram are women who are differently challenged and are on daily medications. These women are brought from streets, railway stations and some rehabilitation. All these women live like a family, and the sisters take good care of each one of them like their own. The BBA BA students’ visit to the ashram was an unforgettable lesson. There the students learnt more about true life and sharing and caring. There were around 45-50 inmates in the home. They were all middle aged women and above. Their physical condition was quite good. There are many recreational facilities available to them and these facilities were properly used by them. However, all of them were lonely and craving for love and affection. The students spoke to them, shared their love and sang songs for them along with dance. The care shown to them by the sisters was indeed inspiring.

“It’s not how much we give but how much love we put into giving.”
Home of Faith Charitable trust is a place for the orphan children. Not only are they deprived of the simple comforts of life, but even basic amenities and essentials like clothes, food and healthcare. Some of the children are very talented and we need to encourage it. They need our empathy more than one sympathy. They need action and also require help from people like us. It has been 13 years since the institution has been carrying out this great responsibility. The trust had children of different age groups generally from 8 years to 18 years. They were very excited when the students walked in at first. It wasn’t so easy to get them to interact with all of them. They engaged the children in activities such as singing songs, making them show their unique talents such as beatboxing, playing games like musical chair and even danced with them. The children were very happy to pose for a picture with the students. The students donated certain commodities such as burgers, chocolate pies, and notebooks. Seeing the children with sporadic resources made them realise to appreciate the copious amounts of things they had sometimes take for granted. This small social outreach programme was of great meaning to all the students. Overall, it was a memorable day to count.
