Fund raising event for us by our supporter

Dr.Ambedar Institute for Management Studies and Research, Nagpur organised a Hindi Hasya Kavi Sammelan on 29th Oct.'2010 at Dr.Vasantrao Deshpande Hall, Nagpur at 5:30 pm. There were 6 Kavi's of Hasya Rus from different parts of the country. This was the fund raising event organized to support SSS and one more NGO from Nagpur. This was the initiative by the Institute of Management it self. Dr. Metre, the Director of the Institute is the man behind such ideas. And of course this is not the first time that they are helping us. It is more than six years now, that this Institute is supporting us in all possible ways. The whole credit of course for this goes to Dr.Metre him self.

The programme was ideally organized of course with our consent. It started with formal introduction of guests and then two beneficiaries i.e. SSS and the other NGO was given time to brief the audience about our activity. I was given the privilege of talking first. My talk was followed by a "bhangada" dance by our students. Then the students haded over rs.36000/- in cash wich they raised by selling "Diwali Diyas" made by our rehab unit. Apart from this, the funds raised through ticket selling will be distributed to these two NGOs.

After half an hour of these initial items, the actual "Hasya Kavi Sammelan" Started at 6:30 pm and was concluded at 9:00pm. The Deshpande hall was full and people fully enjoyed the "Hasya Kavita".

SSS- Annual Programme

Sandnya Sanwardhan Sanstha celebrated its annual programme on 24th Oct.2010. The date of this annual programme is decided six months in advance. The preparation of this event begins with booking of the venue. Since last year we have shifted this venue from IMA hall to Platinum Jubilee hall of Blind Relief Society's on South Ambazari Road, Nagpur. This hall has more sitting capacity then IMA hall. Here we have 800 + capacity and if need be we can add additional 50-70 chairs. Second advantage is, it is on first floor and the staircase is also quite wide like 5'. Thus it becomes user friendly. There is lot of open space apart from enough parking lot. In the open space we could arrange the sales stall and coffee stall as well. Further, it has bigger green room and with toilet attached and additional makeup room for our boys as well. Last and not the least, it is located on south Ambazari Road which has relatively low traffic density.

As usual, programme started at 5:30 pm sharp. The chief Guest was Dr.Sujit Metre, Director, Dr.Ambedkar Institute of Management Studies and Research, Nagpur. The programme was presided over by Rev. Swami Raghvendranand from Ramkrishna Math, Indore, MP. Dr. Ambedkar Institute is supporting us in many ways since last six years.Dr. Metre was a faculty then and the man behind all initiatives related to our association.

This programme started with " Swagat Geet" by our students and staff. There were 5 items presented by our students of different category. There were about 800 people in the audience which included parents of our mentally challenged students and our donors and well-wishers. This programme was concluded in one hour and fifty minutes as per schedule.
