Pakhanna (West Bengal) [India], September 13: The International Youth Development Foundation (IYDF), in partnership with Gorai Optical, organised a meaningful charitable event at Pakhanna Bhairabpur Baramachar Primary School in West Bengal. Led by Anupam Gorai, the owner of Gorai Optical, the initiative aimed to provide essential educational and sports supplies to underprivileged children, supporting their academic and physical activities. The event drew the enthusiastic participation of 50 children, creating a lively atmosphere filled with joy and laughter.
Donations: A Wide Range of Educational and Sports Supplies
During the event, Gorai Optical provided a diverse array of supplies designed to improve both the learning environment and the children's engagement in sports. The donations included items such as school bags, notebooks, sketchbooks, and art supplies like oil pastels. Additionally, stationery such as pencil cases, pencils, pens, and sharpeners were provided alongside water bottles, toys, and cakes. To encourage sports, footballs, cricket bats, and balls were distributed as well. These materials not only enhanced the children's learning experience but also motivated them to participate in physical activities. Through these donations, the organisers hoped to offer the children more opportunities for growth and development, fostering both their academic and athletic potential.
Volunteer Interaction: Blending Sports with Support
The event commenced at 11 a.m., with a dedicated team of 12 volunteers, including Mr. Anupam Gorai, Indranil Mukhopadhyay, Rimpa Mukhopadhyay, Pritam Gorai, Ajmal Mondal, Asraf Mondol, Surajit Roy, Pradip Ghosh, Soumen Khan, Rahul Gorai, Anish Bhandari, and Jiban Ghosh. They actively engaged with the children through football and cricket games, while also organising the distribution of supplies. The sports games, particularly football and cricket, became the highlights of the day. Guided by the volunteers, the children enjoyed the excitement of team sports, which not only promoted cooperation but also allowed them to experience the joy and sense of achievement that comes from physical activity.
Throughout the event, Mr. Utpal Bhattacharya, the head of the beneficiary unit, also played a key role in distributing the supplies. He encouraged the children to seize this opportunity to study diligently and participate in sports, inspiring them to strive towards their dreams.

Reflections from the Volunteers: Fulfillment and Joy
After the event, Anupam Gorai and the other volunteers expressed deep satisfaction with the outcome.

Seeing their smiling faces and feeling their enthusiasm for learning and sports makes me incredibly happy. In the future, we hope to continue conducting similar activities to bring warmth and care to more children."
The other volunteers echoed these sentiments, feeling that their participation in such a charitable event was not only a way to give back to society but also a transformative experience for themselves. They noted that seeing the children's active involvement and their joy-filled expressions brought a deep sense of comfort and inspiration. The volunteers felt that through these interactions, they had gained as much positivity as they had given.
Looking Ahead: Offering Hope and Opportunity to More Children
