They emphasized the importance of not only providing material support but also offering emotional warmth through interaction and engagement.

The result was a well-organized and impactful initiative that met both practical and emotional needs. Both Lohat Sir and Gahlot Sir expressed deep gratitude for the support provided by IYDF and Shriram Cargo Services, praising the volunteers for bringing joy and warmth to the children's lives. Looking Ahead: Creating a Brighter Future TogetherThe success of this event has not only provided immediate help to the children but also instilled hope and confidence for their future.
