The event aimed to provide learning materials and recreational equipment to local underprivileged children, inspiring their passion for education and offering hope for growth and development with the support of dedicated volunteers.

This initiative was focused on providing essential resources and engaging activities for 50 children from Thalthali village in the Darrang district of Assam. Organiser Munsur Ali stated, "We believe that with the right educational support, children can transform their futures and become valuable members of society. This event aims to equip these underprivileged children with the necessary tools and inspire them to pursue their educational dreams."
IYDF has consistently adhered to its mission of helping disadvantaged communities, working with local businesses to ensure children receive the support and resources they need to overcome educational challenges and create a brighter future.
Event Location and Organisers
The event was held at Thalthali LP School in Darrang, Assam, where the school's headmaster, Ranjan Upadhaya, warmly welcomed the volunteer team. The event was organised by Mr. Munsur Ali, who also heads Online Services (Munsur Ali Store), alongside a team of volunteers from the local community, including Haidar Ali, Bhimlal Chowhan, Rahman Ali, Asmat Ali, Asadullah, Lotiur Rahman, Abul Bashar, Sarif Ali, Kamakhyalal, and Saddam Hussain. These volunteers played a key role in the event by organising supplies, engaging with the children, and ensuring that each child received the attention and care they deserved.
Donated Supplies and Distribution
The donations included school bags, pencil boxes, notebooks, colouring books, skipping ropes, badminton sets, cricket kits, footballs, chocolates, bread, and biscuits. These supplies addressed various aspects of the children's needs, from educational support to physical activity, helping to improve their learning environment while also enhancing their teamwork and physical fitness through sports and games.
On the day of the event, volunteers arranged the supplies neatly and interacted with the children, who expressed their joy and gratitude. The donated materials enriched the school's resources and stimulated the children's interest in learning, encouraging them to strive for better academic achievements.
Activities and Interaction with the Children
The event was not limited to distributing supplies; it also featured a series of interactive activities designed to foster a sense of involvement and belonging among the children. Starting at 10:00 AM, the day's activities included:
1. Banner Hanging and Organising Supplies - Volunteers began by hanging the IYDF banner to mark the official start of the charity event. They then carefully arranged the supplies for distribution.
2. Group Photos and Displaying Supplies - The children stood alongside the donated items for a group photo to capture this memorable moment. These photos not only recorded the children's joy but also created lasting memories for future charitable efforts.
3. Introduction to IYDF and Student Performances - Before distributing the supplies, the children performed a song to show their gratitude to the volunteers and organisers. Volunteers also took this opportunity to share IYDF's mission and goals with the children and teachers.
4. Distribution of Supplies and Feedback - In a cheerful atmosphere, volunteers distributed the learning materials and recreational items to the children. Feedback was gathered from both students and teachers, with the children expressing their gratitude and noting that the materials would help them progress in their studies and daily lives.
5. Games and Performances - Volunteers and children enjoyed a range of activities together, including singing, dancing, and interactive games like skipping, football, and badminton matches. These activities showcased the children's energy and joy while strengthening their bonds with the volunteers.
Reflections and Future Aspirations
After the event, organiser Munsur Ali shared his thoughts, stating, "We are honoured to have organised this event. Through initiatives like this, we hope to support these underprivileged children in their educational journeys. We believe that a good education not only changes individual lives but also has a positive impact on society as a whole."
The success of the event not only provided much-needed resources for the children but also brought them happiness and hope through meaningful interactions with the volunteers. Looking ahead, IYDF and Online Services plan to continue partnering on similar initiatives in other regions, helping more children living in poverty by providing them with the resources they need to pursue knowledge and their dreams.
Through this event, IYDF and Online Services demonstrated their deep commitment to social responsibility, empowering the futures of 50 children. In the coming days, they will continue to fulfil this mission by taking concrete actions to improve the lives of even more underprivileged children.
