In the spirit of spreading joy and kindness, SRF organized the heartwarming Wish Tree initiative in collaboration with Ashadeep Association, a dedicated NGO supporting underprivileged children, on December 20th, 2023. This initiative marked a significant effort by SRF committee members to brighten the lives of children in need within our community.

​

The event aimed not only to fulfil the Christmas wishes of disadvantaged children but also to instil a sense of hope and belonging among them. SRF members took on the role of Secret Santas, impacting the lives of 75 children at Ashadeep Foundation. Before Christmas, the committee organized a special gift-gathering event to ensure that each child’s desires were met.

​

SRF members engaged with the association to understand the aspirations of children ranging from 3 to 20 years old. The gifts ranged from word puzzle games and diaries to skateboards and wristwatches, tailored to each child’s preferences. The event included visiting the NGO, spending quality time interacting with the children, playing fun games, and finally distributing the presents. This not only brought smiles to the faces of these children but also left a lasting impact on the members, reinforcing their commitment to community service.

The initiative aligned with promoting peaceful and inclusive societies through actions that support sustainable development and foster community well-being. The Wish Tree initiative exemplifies our dedication to making a positive difference in the lives of underprivileged children, ensuring they feel valued and cherished during the festive season and beyond.
