A public awareness program was organized for school children at Shivamani Children's Academy in Nawada Bazar, Rajaun, on Thursday. The primary objective of the program was to encourage children to help needy families in their vicinity during Diwali and share the joy of the festival with them.

Shivpujan Singh, Secretary of the social organization Shivamani Welfare Educational Society, highlighted the importance of this initiative. He stated that it would play a significant role in fostering a spirit of cooperation, sensitivity, and responsibility towards the underprivileged in society. He urged the children to identify families and children in their surroundings who need support to celebrate the festival before Diwali.

The children were advised to collaborate with their parents and, according to their capacity, contribute sweets, clothes, food items, or other essential goods to the needy, thus becoming a part of their happiness. Furthermore, the program also promoted lighting earthen lamps and using eco-friendly green crackers to ensure a safe and pollution-free Diwali celebration.

Principal Shailesh Kumar, Er. Hemshankar Kumar, Aarti Kumari, Julie, Mamta Kumari, Nandini Kumari, and Mausam Kumari, along among other faculty and staff members, were present at the event, encouraging the children to participate in this noble cause.
