Anganwadi Inauguration

On the 13th September 2007, the inauguration of the first Bholu Anganwadi took place in India. The walls had been decorated and the school was totally equipped and ready to operate. It just needed it's opening party!

We were so humbled to see how much had been done and this is part of an email which we received from our key organiser, Neeta Jadav, a young woman in Ahmedabad who has been responsible for organising these buildings. A bit of an unsung hero, we think.

".....all the kids and people of the community was so excited for the opening of this new Anganwadi and the inauguration event. The kids were all dressed up and so happy. We had decorated the Anganwadi so nicely, with colourful pictures, the alphabet and numbers. Jayesbhai, Anarben ( Manav Sadhna leaders) and all the people who came to the Anganwadi danced and played with children. Saheb was so impressed to see all the kids so happy. He greatly appreciates your dedication towards this community and he talked about you, Bholu and the support of your Bholu community with the people of the village."

We hope this brings everything the kids needs to get a better start. We can't wait to see the beginnings of the next one!
