BRIEF DESCRIPTION
Like previous years, this year too Everyside Foundation celebrated the Republic Day in style undertaking a bunch of curriculums. Among these, distribution of School accessories and sweets & chocolates among the primary school students was one of the main activities. Headmistress Rama Devi of Senjiagaram Primary School contacted the NGO for this much before. On her insistence this program was earmarked and took place in the premise of the school. The place was decorated nicely, invited guests were present. Among them the President and the Vice President of the Senjiagaram village Panchayat were the chief guests. All the kids were adorned with the clean school uniform and smile in their faces. HM Rama Devi had tough time managing the whole affair. But she did manage the program with elan along with the able guidance from the CEO, Everyside Foundation, Miss Beulah and her ever-efficient volunteers.
The program started at sharp 8:30 in the morning and as a part of the program, The Tricolour was hoisted first by the chief guests amidst clapping of all, the National Anthem was sung by all the people and the kids present and afterwards, the guests delivered brief speech on the importance of the Republic Day. This year is the 75th year of India’s Independence for which the central Govt. declared this year as Azadi ki Amrit Mahotsav that too was mentioned by the Chief guests in their impromptu speeches. They too mentioned the need of these kind of activity of giving and spreading joy and happiness among the young school-goers and praised the NGO for their charity work.
The chief guests also mentioned that in today’s world, the voluntary organisations like Everyside Foundation are a boon to the society. The Govt. is doing their job but these NGOs work in a micro level and by several activities help spreading the Govt.’s activities to the people living in the BPL categories in the remotest areas where the basic need like Education was hard to facilitate.
The program concluded by the HM by giving vote of thanks. Then the real program started for which the primary school goers were waiting impatiently. It is the distribution of colourful schoolbags along with some chocolates and sweets. The kids were seen visibly very happy getting the gifts which the NGO Everyside Foundation arranged.

The HM Rama Devi requested the CEO for donating the green board for the school and Miss Beulah happily agreed to it and instructed volunteers to take measurement of the same so that this board, which is essential accessory for the school can be delivered soon.
Finally, the program came to an end and the CEO of Everyside Foundation, Miss Beulah Savitha while returning with her team, noticed that the National flag which was furling in the back drop of blue sky and in the ground the happy faces of the kids roaming around with the gifts were the two best things in the morning.
