Just One: Shiva Ji Mission School 10 September

9/10/2016

 
Picture
​On September 10, 2016, Sai Maa Vishnu Shakti Trust held a ‘Just One’ food distribution at the Shiva Ji Mission School, Lakshmanpur, in the north section of Varanasi. Vegetable curry, poori (fried bread) and kheer (milk rice pudding) are served to the over 350 children in class today. There are only 8 classrooms, a storage room and the principal’s office, and an outdoor corridor to fit all 350 children.  We cannot serve them all at once, so we serve two classrooms at a time in an orderly fashion.  

The electricity is out today, so there are no fans working.  It is literally like a sauna in the classrooms.  There are only brick walls, with no air circulation. The children’s faces are dripping with sweat.  They are so happy though.  They all want their pictures taken, many posing for the cameras while in various stages of eating their meal.
 
There are eight teachers.  They are always diligently watching the classrooms. Teaching the children is not always an easy job in these conditions.  And, as I compare the discipline of these children to those of the children in other slums that do not have any teachers, the behavior difference is night and day.  They want us to know how much the children appreciate Sai Maa and Sai Maa’s community for caring about them.  The Just One Initiative does make a difference.
