Orphanage Visit

The Bhawanipur Education Society College- NSS unit organized a visit to Mother Teresa’s Orphanage (differently-able children section) on 23rd March, 2015 at 9.00 am .Students of our college were accompanied by Prof. Dilip Shah and Prof. Soumendra Laha. All of us were deeply touched when we received a warm welcome from all the Sisters of the orphanage. There were 35 innocent children, who were jumping with joy as we interacted with them.

The time spent with those special children made us feel overwhelmed. The way the children mingled with us, played games and enjoyed music was an enriching experience for life. We donated crayons, coloring books, pencil boxes, toys, clothes, fruit juices, biscuits, chocolates, snacks, etc. The children were happier than one could possibly imagine, it was a riot of happiness.

This was amongst one of those moments that we can never describe. It was memorable, meaningful and a redeeming morning for all present. The eyes and the smiles of children will linger in our heart for all times to come.

All students felt entrenched with the joy of giving and thus we express our deep sense of gratitude to the college for arranging this journey towards humanity.

All of us are so lost in this fanciful world of opulence that we hardly seem to notice the other half of deprivation. We have all the luxuries, yet we always crave for more and more. When we saw this child in Orphanage, we realized how fortunate we really are.

The quote to remember so aptly comes from Mother Teresa herself – “Love until it hurts”.
