Volunteer Testimonials

Thane Enrolment Drive

It was an altogether new experience of volunteering. sloganeering on the streets for something, I had never done before.  It was fun and moreover if we could enrol even one child in school with this effort will give immense satisfaction. Looking forward to participate in the activities on coming weekends.

 I had an amazing experience during the Nukkad Natak and rally at Mumbra. We were basically there for spreading awareness regarding the children education in the nearby area. It seems like the school there is in a bad condition with just 3-4 kids per class. We hope the situation improves and more kids goes to school. I would like to thank CRY for giving this opportunity where I could be a part of the awareness. It was the first time ever for me performing a nukkad natak.

 I participated in the rally for encouraging children in Thane to go to TMC schools. I found that though our team was small our enthusiasm was enough to attract the attention of people. We found people asking us questions and requesting information. We also found them voluntarily providing information about children who do not go to school. People who have children already going to school also showed interest in the rally and heard us out. We found that people are invested in making a change and this may be a small but definite step towards that.

July  16th, I participated in the  Rally  for education enrollment  drive along with my  co-volunteers of Thane  group.  Along with some enthusiastic  volunteers , some school  children also joined us and we managed to target  houses to find the reason for drop outs and  why children  were  not going to school. It was good  to see  that with our  Rally, we could create  awareness  about  TMC's new policies  And develop  rapport with the locals  to get a better understanding  regarding this problem. Great experience, overall..
