Udaipur (Rajasthan) [India], October 5: The International Youth Development Foundation (IYDF) and Dr Saurabh's Dental Clinic and Implant Centre successfully organized a charity event at Puja Sansthan, Anudayit Anusuchit Jaati Kanya Chatrawas Orphanage in Udaipur, Rajasthan. The event provided essential living supplies, educational materials, and dental health education to 65 orphans, aiming to improve their living conditions, education, and health, and to help them build a brighter future.
Led by Dr Saurabh Goel, the event was supported by several volunteers, including Dr Barkha Makhijani Goel, Dr Vijay Goel, Dr Snehlata, Chanda Chauhan, Jaya Makhijani, and Shiv Sukhwal. Through their collective efforts, the children received vital aid and learned valuable health knowledge.
Donating Supplies for a Healthier, Brighter Future
The volunteer team distributed a range of essential supplies to the children, covering both their daily needs and their educational growth. Items included wheat flour, rice, peanut oil, sugar, pulses, and oats. In addition, the children received stationery kits, painting supplies, carrom boards, badminton racquets, and sweets. These donations not only addressed the children's immediate needs but also enriched their extracurricular lives with learning and recreational materials.
Dinesh Sisodiya and Harshit Verma, heads of the Puja Sansthan Orphanage, expressed their deep gratitude to IYDF and the volunteers. Dinesh said, "These donations will significantly improve the children's living conditions and provide them with more learning resources and opportunities for play. This support is not just about the material assistance but also about the care and attention these children are receiving from society."
Oral Health Education: Building Good Habits from an Early Age
In addition to the donations, the event emphasized dental health education and check-ups. Dr Saurabh Goel and Dr Barkha Makhijani Goel conducted detailed dental screenings, checking the children's teeth and gums. They also explained how to prevent common dental problems by practicing good brushing habits and oral care. The volunteers stressed the importance of oral hygiene in maintaining overall health, helping the children develop strong health awareness.
Each child received a toothbrush and toothpaste to encourage them to maintain proper oral hygiene. Dr Saurabh noted, "We hope that through this education, the children will adopt good oral health habits early on. Health is not just about the body; oral health is equally important. This event gave us a wonderful opportunity to contribute to their overall well-being."

Fun and Learning: Art Competitions and Talent Shows
Following the distribution of supplies and dental check-ups, the volunteers organized a fun art competition where the children expressed their dreams and imaginations through painting. Three children were awarded prizes for their exceptional artwork, and all participants received painting supplies and stationery kits as a token of encouragement.
The event ended on a high note with snacks and treats, including samosas, ladoos, and biscuits. The atmosphere was filled with joy as the children enjoyed their snacks. A talent show followed, where the children performed traditional dances, filling the air with laughter and applause. The children spent an unforgettable afternoon filled with fun and excitement.

This event allowed us to not only provide them with essential supplies but also contribute to their health and future. I'm deeply thankful to Peter Varga and the IYDF team for trusting us with this humanitarian project."
The other volunteers echoed these sentiments, expressing that the event was not just about providing material support but also about inspiring the children.
