On 22nd December 2012, Sincere Hears had its very own first Xmas Charity Day! We did not plan any activity in the month of November, in the hope of saving our resources for our big December project. Ekta and I began planning early December, by dividing event jobs to our dear members, who very actively took part in the project. Another thing to be extremely excited about was the fact that we have our t-shirts now, custom made for our group. (anyone interested to purchase them please feel free to holler!). My house was filled with over 20 excited people who slowly made their way to the cars to visit the orphanage having over 200 children and senior citizens. The children and seniors greeted us politely as entered the premises and immediately sat obediently, waiting for us to kick-start the program. We started the festivities by our classic way of self-introduction, trademark of Sincere Hearts ;) Next up, our very talented Vt and Nunu (Diksha and Bhavna) headed a short skit about the importance of honesty. Not only the children and seniors, but we members also found their skit extremely entertaining! Next up, in order to keep in line with the christmas spirit, Ekta, Pooja and Sonam shared interesting stories about christmas, followed by a fun round of game by Ravina, Divya Maina and Priti. The "dar", "dir", "dur" game was played by several children amongst the crowd who were penalized for song and dance when they lose a round. Oh, and to add to the spirit, we had xmas carols playing in the background the whole time! We then reached the cherry on the cake, with our special guest, Santa Claus, who appeared suddenly and greeted everyone cheerily. Everyone was as excited as ever to see the unexpected guest as Santa strolled around the premises to say hello to everyone. The day ended with Santa distributing gift bags to everyone and "photo bersama" session. An extremely satisfying time was had by all and we sincerely thank our generous donators for their contributions. We cannot make all of these happen without you! God bless and Seasons' Greetings!
