Dear Friends
First and foremost my apologies for the delay in printing of this Newsletter.

LAST SIX MONTHS:

Although there were several reasons for this delay, the main reason was the pandemic, since we had no option but to focus our attention on the need of the hour i.e., to reach out and help the needy get their basic requirement of food.

The unprecedented occurrence of this pandemic resulted in a lot of brainstorming on our end. We had to prepare out team to go out into the front line and make sure the execution was perfect since we couldn’t risk our teams safety or health.

As the saying goes, better late than never, so here we are.

The Serve Samman team has been working relentlessly towards uplifting humanity especially women and children, and health issues are prioritized

Once again this year, Children were provided with a platform to learn as well as have fun while celebrating special events.

ONLINE COURSES

Online course in all streams have been organized to enable the students to catch up to the speed of today’s technology driven world.

In an attempt to empower women and help them become self sufficient, platforms for learning skills like stitching, beautician and grooming were taught.

Serve Samman was quick to act during this pandemic by helping the daily wage workers with their basic needs .

Here is a brief synopsis of some of the events of 2020 so far.

  EVENT CELEBRATION AT SOHNA
 
January 23rd – 23 bicycles were distributed amongst talented children at Sohna resort Gurgaon. These children were selected on the bases of their merit. Since some bright students couldn’t pursue their education because of the school being far away, providing them with bicycles ensured and encouraged them to pursue/continue their education and have a good career in the future.
