SSY KENDRA PIMPOLI

by

We took one more confident step towards our mission of rural development by setting up a new Kendra for Zilla Parishad schools at Pimpale village.

 

  Three projects that we have started with are-  Enhancing English reading and writing skills to help students communicate better.  Computer proficiency to help them handle technology  and Advanced SSY fun games to help them bond better with everyone and experience togetherness  among themselves. These projects are an initiative to make the students  more self-reliant by building up their self-esteem.

Our Rural  Development team members take turns to conduct regular sessions with the students. The centre aims to be the focal point for future activities planned to bring about a positive difference in the lives of these rural children. 

International Yoga day celebrations

by

Creating awareness about the importance of Yoga on 20th, 21st and 22nd June, 2018. 

70 residents of Katarkhadak village, 200 villagers from Khamboli village,  20 students and teachers of Jawal  village whereas 100 students and teachers of Rishi Gurukulam availed of this opportunity to learn basic asanas and understand the importance of Yoga Day.

 

We were fortunate to help the entrepreneurs who attended the scope camp during the same period by sharing the knowledge of basic asanas with them too.

The activity was backed by INO, International Naturopathy Organisation. Renuka, the Secretary of INO, headed this activity. She was accompanied by our Rural Development team 

Marathon…… Chasing dreams!

by

The hills beckoned us and we ran to their call. Winding their through the lush green valley,  Rishi Gurukulam students, teachers, parents  along with 13  Village  school students and  runners from Striders group participated in the Varsha Marathon held on ………..2018. Students ran a good 6km while others completed the Marathon as part of our ‘Clean India, Green India Campaign.’

We made arrangements for the Marathon with refreshments in between. Children were gifted beautiful tiffin boxes with healthy breakfast.

Skill with a purpose

by

Our Rural women were taught to weave their dreams in the form of designer bags. Rashmi Shah designer from Mumbai trained the women to use leftover cloth materials from her boutique to make colorful bags. These bags would be used by her to give away to her clients. This gave impetus to ‘Ban the Plastic campaign’. Women also learnt to make creative use of waste, value resources and fill their pockets with some hard earned money.

 

 

Our meditator Rashmi Shah is a Designer in Mumbai, arranged the bag making workshop for Rural women.

Monday Satsangh

by

We cannot do great things. We can only do small things with great love.

 

 

       We added a dash of our love in the lives of our in- house rural staff such as gardeners, cooks, Housekeeping staff, etc. by conducting Monday Satsangh. It is time for them to melt in love rather than be frozen in differences with each other. They work half day on Monday and the remaining half is dedicated to rest, energy session, meditation and fun club. Various scope camp topics are chosen every Monday to help them grow inwards. A feeling of togetherness rules these fun filled workshops.

 

Keeping the energy for the week very high by doing these weekly sessions. We provide a platform for them to be growing in their values and living by it. Helping them apply all that is taught to them and reminding them.

Naturopathy beauty training

by

     ‘There is no force equal than a woman determined to rise.’

 

 

      We helped determined rural women rise in their own expectations by getting together with INO (International Naturopathy organization). Equipping them with skills in beauty and Naturopathy, they were taught full body massage and parts of body massage. A new dimension added was to improve upon the inner talk while doing all these naturopathic treatments on people.

Renuka along with Pooja from INO conducted the session at our Katarkhadak SSY Kendra on 8th April, 2018.

Bin it

by

As part of our Clean India, Green India initiative, we installed two garbage bins in Jawal village.

One in the chowk  area and the other near the temple. Villagers are happy to have this. They have started using these bins.

 

Knowledge about garbage collection and disposal formed the part of the awareness program.  Thus inspired all the residents of Javal village and help them to take the responsibility.

Our Rural Development team helped in installing the bins. And creating awareness on the same. 

Groom and Grow!

by

‘ An empowered woman is powerful beyond measure and  beautiful beyond description.’

 

       Empowering rural girls with skills for financial independence has always been our motto. As part of this initiative, we arranged for a hair styling workshop for rural girls. They were taught different hair styles and ways to adorn hair with colorful beads, pins, etc.

 

      Learning to groom themselves and the need to carry them well was a byproduct of the workshop.

Children SSY… Making a Difference

by

To help children blossom,   we added a dash of sunshine in their lives with our Children SSY class conducted at Vadgavan and Dhonde village at Rajgurunagar. Sponsored by Bilcare, the initiative aims at empowering children with a vision for a brighter tomorrow. Coloured with stories, drawings and drama, the  activities in the workshop aid in making them responsible citizens.

Dinesh ji along with Dipesh conducted the sessions in the most fun filled manner. Making creative board and banners post the session so that they can be with the same energy!

International Women’s day with Padman

by

On the eve of Women’s day, we let media take charge and do what it does best- be a force of positive change. 130 women from Katarkhadak village celebrated womanhood by gathering  for a special screening of the movie Padman, specially arranged for them. The initiative aimed at equipping women with necessary knowledge and empower them to be leaders in their own right and catalyse development. The movie came as an eye- opener in the area of menstrual hygiene for most rural women. The coming together of women helped even the most reticent ones to speak their hearts out. The beneficiaries promised us that they would put their health at the top of their  priority list henceforth. They  are now willing to visit the clinic meant for them when needed. To add to the celebrations,  we distributed tiffin boxes to them and  enjoyed a meal together at the SSY Ananad Kendra. The Director of the movie, R. Balki lauded our initiative with-” Thank you so much for taking this film to the areas where it has to be seen.” A small baby step to help women speak up, speak for and speak out……
