Stranger Things

 

As the year started to wind up and with Christmas around the corner, here’s what Enlightening Lives did.

Christmas is a celebration of giving and sharing. Keeping this in mind we tried to emphasise this motto and organised an event. A week before Christmas i.e on the 19th of December, a fundraising event was organised. As a part of this, participants were asked to donate one hundred and ninety-nine rupees and wait for a surprise Christmas gift and a positive note from a stranger(who is also a participant in the event). Certainly, the concept excites a lot of students and as soon as the posters and registration links were released, students enrolled in good numbers and generously donated for welfare activities and received their Christmas gifts and special notes from a stranger. The year 2020 was indeed full of hurdles and difficulties. But at  Enlightening Lives, we helped a few throughout the year and did our part in reaching out to those in need. We pledged to continue the help for years to come.
