37 Pankhudi Pune children showed off their creativity on the morning of 19th April, 2009. It all started with Ruby and Shrikant collecting them from Wakdewadi and getting them to the COEP boat club where close to 16 members of Jagruti from Infosys were already waiting for them.
The event started with each of the kids introducing themselves by name and favorite color!!! Mrs. Archana Naik from Infosys followed this up with a story. As the students were divided into 12 groups under 12 of the Infosys members, snacks were served too.
After snacks, the drawing material was distributed amongst the groups. Each of the kids was enthusiastically involved in showing off their creativity with the group head cheering each of them on.
The whole group was joined by Mr. Gautam Bandiwadekar, IBU head at Infosys Finacle and his son at 12 PM. Mr. Gautam was so impressed by the event and the work being done that he instantaneously expressed interest to continue such initiatives and contribute to them.
The event ended by 1 AM, with cakes and caps distributed amongst the kids in anticipation of the upcoming Pankhudi birthday!
The energy and commitment of all Pankhudi members involved, in particular Jyoti, Murthy, Ruby, Priti, Nivedita and Shrikant paid off with the event being a total success!
All of us at Pankhudi would like to thank all the Jagruti members and Infosys for organizing the workshop- giving the kids a colourfully creative break from their routine besides waking up the artists within the all-time-mastii kids!
