Neighbors, former residents, staff, and friends \u2013 they all, along with many others, made the annual Contribution Day at the children’s homes a memorable experience. Every year, people connected to our partner organization in Hyderabad come together to share memories and celebrate with the children.<\/strong><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

The local community generously supports the operation of the children’s homes. On Contribution Day, neighbors and former residents arrived with full hands, filling the kitchen\u2019s storage with large sacks of rice, sunflower oil, eggs, and flour. Some brought blankets and towels for the children, while others contributed to the stock of school supplies. The staff of the children’s homes brought a variety of homemade dishes, creating a large buffet where children and visitors could help themselves throughout the day.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

A stall for children’s clothing was set up on the campus. From the wide selection of T-shirts and skirts for young and old, all children had the chance to pick out a new outfit.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Contribution Day has now become a cherished tradition. The neighborhood connects with the children and the project team over the buffet or through small activities such as games and henna hand painting. Former residents, now adults, use the occasion to visit their former home. This cheerful gathering provides an ideal opportunity to strengthen the project’s local roots in Hyderabad.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
