Studying, learning, gaining knowledge is a gradual process a student undertakes over the years. Kailashwati inter college is another present example of almost to no facilities at all ranging from demeaning classrooms, doorless toilets, waterlogged rooms, broken benches. The kids were studying under conditions people like us couldn’t have thought about. The school was in condition were one couldn’t have imagined to sit let alone study. However, these unfortunate kids were a part of the process but with almost no facilities to sustain in. Xavient Digital has really come forward along with its troop of volunteers to transform and touch the lives of innocent kids. The venture includes altering the entire structure from refurbishing the furniture, freshly painted walls, finely facilitated washrooms, and refurbished roofs, to painted cartoon characters for lively attractive vibe for the kids.

Shifting our focus on the event which took place on 5th of October’19 at Kailashwati Inter College. The event aimed at painting drawing on the walls of the school. It was fun-filled event for the volunteers as well as the kids. The event was followed by a smooth transition beginning with an authentic Indian welcome by Lakshyam kids of the guests in the morning. The Classroom painting, Boundary wall painting, Chair/bench/brick painting, Games and activities with kids work kept on happening as aside business but henceforth the most important one. Followed by a welcoming enthusiastic dance performance performed by the kids on stage, also some singing and gigs performed by the Xavient Digital. Along, with a thank you speech by Lakshyam Founder Ms. Raashi Aanand. A warm and kind Thank you speech was also delivered by the CEO of Xavient Digital and TELUS International Mr. Saif Ahmad and Mr. Jeff Puritt respectively. The kids were again given a chance to sing and dance on stage freely. Post lunch the volunteering work resumed for a wrap up this time.

Indeed, to sum up, the generous steps taken by Lakshyam NGO in association with Xavient Digital Powered by TELUS International has made an admirable contribution touching thousands of lives. Such contribution will pay off in the form of future learners and contributors to society. For these kids are the future of our society and investing in them is or never will be a waste.
