Dear Parent / Guardians,
Greetings!
“What we spend
, we lose. What we keep
will be left for others. What we give
away will be ours forever.”
As the festival of Diwali approaches, a
time filled with warmth, togetherness,
and celebration, we are filled with thespi-
rit of gratitude. In the true essence of the
festival, we are pleased to announce the '
Joy of Giving Week' from 14th oct2024 to
19th oct 2024. This special week gives
our students the beautiful opportunity
to experience the joy ofselflessness and
spread happiness to those who need it the
most.
Diwali is not only about lighting up our
homes but also about lighting up hearts.
In the spirit of this, all contributionsmade
by students during this week will be
donated to charity, symbolizing the
removal of darkness from someone’slife,
and filling it with hope and light.
Here’s how we plan to spread light and
love this week:
Day 1: 14th oct 2024 – The Gift of
Knowledge
Donate Books & Stationery; Every child
deserves the chance to learn and grow.
By donating books and stationery,your
child can give another child the wings of
education. Let’s help every child dream big
and create a brighter future.
Day 2: 15th oct 2024 – The Warmth of
Compassion
Donate Clothes & Blankets; As winter
approaches, imagine the warmth you
can offer by donating clothes and
blankets. Let’s share the comfort we
feel at home with those who don’t have
the same privilege. Every smallcontri-
bution will wrap someone in love.
Day 3: 16th oct 2024 – The Food of Life
Donate Non-Perishable Food Items
(Dalia, Sooji, Flour, Rice, Sugar,
Biscuits) & Dog Food; Hunger and hard-
shipextend not only to people but to our
animal friends as well. Along with non-
perishable food items like rice, pulses , and
packaged goods for families in need, stud-
ents can also donate dog food. These con-
tributions will be shared with bothfamilies
and shelters that care for stray animals,
reminding us that kindness extends to all
living beings.
Day 4: 17th oct 2024 – Light up Lives
Spread Light (Diya, oil, wick, rangoli col-
ours) Diwali is synonymous with light,
and we are inviting students to buycan-
dles, diyas, or lanterns from local ven-
dors. These little creations will not only
brighten homes but also bring aspark of
hope and happiness into the lives of the
less fortunate.
Day 5: 18th oct 2024 – The Joy of Play
Donate Toys Games; Play is every child’s
right. By donating toys and games, your
child can share the joy of childhoodwith
those who might never have experienced
it. These toys will bring smiles and laug-
hter into the lives of childrenwho need
them the most.
At the end of this beautiful week, all don-
ated items will be handed over to chari-
table organizations that work tirelesslyto
uplift the underprivileged. Through this
small gesture, we hope to fill their Diwali
with the light of love and hope.
Instructions for Participation:

clean, in good condition, and ready to be

Dear parents, this initiative is not just
about donations; it’s about teaching our
children the joy of empathy and thetrue
meaning of community. Let them feel the
happiness that comes from giving, and the

made a difference in someone’s life.
We are certain that together, we can spr-
ead the light of Diwali far and wide, touc-
hing lives in ways that words cannot
express. Let’s make this Diwali memorable,
not just for ourselves, but for those who
need our love the most.
