15 NGO's and 450 children participated in the competition which was held at Dr. Zakir Hussain College in Delhi. Misbah, a schoolgirl being financially and educationally aided by Sakshi through its Girls Education Project, won IInd Prize!
She was very excited to receive the prize (a Certificate and Set of Books) from Mr. Kapil Sibal, Hon'ble Minister of Communications and Information Technology in the Government of India. Sakshi NGO also received Books worth Rs. 5000.
We are very proud of Misbah for her talent and her ability to conceptualize and execute a thoughtful and aesthetic drawing on the topic of "Bal Diwas (Children's Day)" which was appreciated by so many, especially since she is only in Class VI! Well done, Misbah!
Along with our focus on academics and values, our goal is to have our children participate regularly in extra-curricular activities, both internal and external to Sakshi. This helps socialize them, develops their thinking and creative abilities and provides them with enjoyable childhood memories which are otherwise a rarity in their lives.
