A Perfect Close To A Perfect Year- Christmas and Annual Day Celebrations at Dwarka PAG
The day when every single person felt no less than a child; something
like this happened on 25th December, 2018 at the CRY Dwarka PAG. It
was a magical event that began with twofold happiness, Christmas Day and Annual
Day celebrations.
It was for the first time this year that an event brought both,
the parents and the children together, and where love and respect felt intertwined
and more so our volunteers felt great experiencing these moments of happiness.
Starting with the lavish decoration, the mesmerizing performances,
the delicious food and many fun activities, this year’s Christmas and Annual
Day celebrations brought an exciting end to this amazing year.
The plan was to organize the event for approximately 50 children
but the enthusiasm among the children for this day led to a turnout of over 70,
which really got all the volunteers super excited for what was to come.
The ‘Baarat Ghar’ was selected as the venue, that was
decorated so beautifully with colorful balloons and ribbons, that made it seem
ready for a week worth of celebrations.
The event began with utmost excitement and the children were
given insights about the Christmas and the celebration each year. The children then
showed their talent at singing by performing a Christmas Carol, only to
mesmerize the audience.
Our children did not stop there; oh no! They had even more
performances planned in the form of dances that were so energetic and
well-choreographed that the audience could do nothing but cheer them on.
The volunteers also had something special in store for the
children. Every volunteer from CRY participated in developing a presentation
for the children, showcasing all the small little achievements and moments of
success that they had in the year gone by. This brought a lot of beautiful
memories among all present and everyone pledged to make the next year even
bigger.
What could be better than a fun filled day of performances and
mutual appreciation of the work done? An evening of refreshments and to go
along with it, distribution of certificates to all the participants in this
celebration.
Oh! And did I forget to mention that we had a Secret Santa?!!
One of our volunteers dressed up as Santa Claus and made a special appearance
to celebrate this day of love, happiness and giving by distributing gifts to
everyone present there. This not only instilled a sense of joy among all, but
also made everyone realize how a small act of kindness goes a long way in
spreading happiness.
The day was not less than a beautiful and fun-filling
roller-coaster ride where emotions ran high and everyone had an amazing time
right from organizing until the event came to a close. With tonnes of fun and
singing and dancing and pictures, this day was etched in the memories of our
children and the CRY volunteers as a happy place that they can visit all the
time.
At the end of it all, the smile that was on the faces of
children made it worthwhile. And isn’t that the reason we’re all working
together at CRY every day!?
