Gowda took up our internship at SCEAD (Space for Children in Education Art and Development)FOUNDATION as part of our Social Responsibility
Project for our Under-graduation program.We
began our internship after a brief introduction about the Scead Foundation. and its projects that were taken
up by them, Our Mentor was Mr. Siju Thomas Daniel who was also the Founder of Scead
Foundation told how they are working hard, day and night in spreading knowledge and education in
rural India, empowering the visually impaired, disabled and underprivileged
people and creating an inclusive society which provides equal opportunities for
them, we were briefed about the International Peace Youth Group (IPYG)
based in South Korea. IPYG aims to unite the
youth of every nation, and pave the way to a peaceful future for our world. Inorder
to take suggestions for world peace I and my teammate Shivkumar visited St.Pauls School and Presidency Pre-university
college Bangalore,we interacted with a lot of students about how they as youth could contribute towards world
peace,how they(youth) could help create a peace zone where only peace would
exist for an upcoming generations and
solutions for the same we made a video of the responses of students and sent it
to IPYG . We had a very good platform for us to gain knowledge and understand
what people thought and knew about world peace.
We
also visited Slums of BTM Layout Bangalore while we walked in the place looked
shabby and filled with tiny shacks were everybody lived. We werevery anxious
and imagining on how those people lived there.We gathered nearly 25 to 30 kids
of the area at the assembly point, we played games, organized competitions such
as running race, frog race, kabaddi etc. amongst them. we also distributed chocolates
and pencils as gifts for winners of the competition, we also interacted with
the kids about the need for education and how important it was to attend
schools to gain knowledge to survive in today’s world. The children were highly
co operative and very social towards us. They had fun playing and interacting
with us. And realized how privileged we were to live our comfortable lives. Through
this internship we were able to gain a lot of knowledge and understanding about
various aspects such as world peace, livelihood of different people etc. all
this will be an unforgettable experience for us in our lifetime.We
thank Our Mentor Mr. Siju Thomas (Founderof SCEAD FOUNDATION) for giving us the
opportunity to take up such initiative and for helping us be a part of SEAD
FOUNDATION and Its Projects.Yours faithfully SAI KRISHNA M & SHIV KUMAR GOWDA MBBA – (CHRIST UNIVERSITY BANGALORE)

In collaboration with the student council of St. Joseph's College of Commerce working on the Peace project.The Peace project is a program dedicated to Hiroshima-Nagasaki day on 9th of August to remember the tragic effect of nuclear weapon. It’s a speech of peace all over the world provided by our volunteers and dignitaries. Also we will be organizing a signature campaign on this day in which the students will be signing in support of this campaign.
W e present you some of our volunteers from June / July 2019 and their work with children in the slums and at St Gaspar's school. H ere you will find Georgia, a volunteer from Albania who has volunteered mainly in the slums of Bangalore to offer extra-curricular activities and offer help in the school of these slums. Here are other pictures showing other volunteers doing yoga, doing activities in slums with children and a teacher in a slum school. Here is the work of our volunteer Aishwarya from France who volunteered at St Gaspar's School in Bangalore ( Doddanagamangala). She gave French lessons to 8th-grade, 9th-grade and 10th-grade students.
I'm glad today's youth is taking such initiative.
