Introduction
“The most terrible poverty is loneliness, and the feeling of being unloved.”
Trithva Ashram is a place for the old and mentallychallenged. Not only they are deprived of the simple comforts of life, but even basic amenities and essentials like clothes, food and healthcare. Some of them including the elderly and physically or mentally challenging have been abandoned on the streets. They need our empathy more than one sympathy. They need action and also require help.

Our Experience
We started off at 1:30 pm and reached there by 1:45 pm. The place had people of women aged more than 60. We interacted with the people over there . They seemed to be very happy when people talked to them and showed care and affection towards them.

The concerned authority told us that these people who were dumped in the railway stations, roads, etc. were brought to them by the police. She went on to say that the place was facing a shortage of things because the number of people there had outnumbered the maximum limit.

Sorrow & pity was filled in our minds, seeing their disabilities made us feel ever so grateful about the lives we had & also how we shouldn’t take any moments for granted. We engaged them in activities such as singing & dancing. Though we were strangers to them, but we made sure we give love as a family. The experience for us was humbling, as we have seen people who have nothing, still able to smile and on the other hand we students always seem to find things to complain in our lives.

Response
At first, it wasn’t so easy to get them to interact with all of us. We also had a small entertainment programme presented to them. And towards the end, we were surprised to see many of them dancing with us even calling out our students to dance with them .. Later they sang songs and got comfortable with everyone. All of them were happy and excited to see the students visiting them and helping them in every way we could. We asked them to share some of their experience with us and they spoke very emotionally to it. Before we left, we gifted them and took many pictures. As we left, they asked us to visit them once again. They all were very happy about the visit made by us.

Overview
This experience was definitely an eye opener for each one of us as college pupils. We the B.Sc. students are so blessed and lucky to have been a part of this wonderful programme. And would be extremely glad for more opportunities like this. This experience helped us learn so much about the life of those people, and the difficulties they face.

Introduction
“Family isn’t about blood it’s about who is willing to hold your hand when you need it is the most”
As we know the most terrible poverty is loneliness, and the feeling of being unloved, our visit to HOLY FAMILY OF FAITH was to reduce this loneliness and bring some happiness and joy in the faces and forget sorrows of not having their loved ones around them, at least for time being. There were about 70 inmates in the home. All of them were in the age group of 50 and above. They are all financially and physically dependent on their family or on charity. Not only they are deprived of love but also simple basic amenities of life such as food, healthcare, soaps, other groceries etc. They need empathy more than sympathy. Not everyone’s physical condition was good. They need action and also require help from people like us. It has been few years since the institution has taken the great responsibility, elderly women of different age groups and different places are living in the home.

Our Experience
It was an opportunity for us the students to share the joy and peace with the old people. The students were able to learn more about true life, sharing and loneliness and the feeling of helpless. We started off at 1:40 pm and reached the home by 2.00 pm. They had just completed with their regular small nap. The place was very hygienic and comfortable. However, all of them were lonely and carving for love and affections. In the beginning we interacted with the people personally over there, shared our love and thoughts. Some of them even broke into tears. They seemed to be very happy when people talked to them and showed care and affection towards them. We started off with the welcome speech carried on with the group song to cheer them up. They were all motivated and happier to see us performing. Meanwhile, other students spoke to the gentle women who were physically unable to come down stairs and involve themselves in the program. Later there was a small balloon activity lined up for them. This rejuvenated their drooping spirit and filled the old hearts with joy and content. Soon later there was dazzling dance performance made up for them by the girls. Next there was a game lined up for them called dumb charades, that we played opened the invaluable treasure of old evergreen movies, and songs treasured by the grannies. A grandma of age 68-70 with lots of enthusiasm sang a kannada song and entertained the whole crowd. At the end of this irreplaceable journey everyone danced to their full potential, and captured few pictures, making the get-together a magnificent memory.

Overview
This experience was definitely an eye opener for each one of us as college students. The BCA analytics students are so blessed and lucky to be a part of this wonderful programme and would be extremely glad for more opportunities like this.

Introduction
“Whatsoever you do to the least of my people, you do unto me.”
Thrithwa Ashram, located in Thanisandra main road, is a home for the destitute and intellectually challenged women. They are being taken care by Sr. Miriyamma and Miss. Athira. Apparently, they really aren’t mentally disabled, everything they do, they do it with their heart. This institution has been carrying out this splendid responsibility of making the inmates feel like home for several years.

Our Experience
We started off at 1:45 pm and reached there by 2:00 pm. We spoke to the caretakers for few minutes and they briefed us about their ashram. There were about 42 inmates aged above 30. They seemed to be very happy when we talked to them and showed care and affection towards them.

We greeted them and handed over the supplies to them as a token of love. They appreciated our kindness. Later, we were led upstairs where all the inmates had assembled and were already seated on one side.

We were downcast by the sight of them being disabled when they could have had a better life. We engaged them in activities such as singing & dancing and sooner we realized that they were much better than us, when it comes to loving one another. All the way, we were wondering how we’d interact with someone who’s mentally not well but, we were wrong. They entertained us much more than we ever could and most surprising part was when we heard Nagendra Sir singing for the first time, dedicating a song, especially for them. The experience for us was inspiring as we being students, waste our mind in thinking things which are not necessary for us, instead of using our gifted minds to the fullest.
