PUNE: In a heartwarming display of community spirit and commitment to education, Lexicon Kids Viman Nagar, in collaboration with the Viman Nagar Resident Association, concluded a successful Book Donation Drive aimed at making the joy of reading accessible to underprivileged children. The drive, held on August 10th, 12th, and 13th, collected a vast array of storybooks and novels in Hindi, Marathi, and English, suitable for students from Nursery to Class 10th. These books will be donated to Pune Municipal Corporation (PMC) schools and orphanages in the surrounding areas.
The initiative received an overwhelming response, with parents, students, and residents coming together to contribute books in large numbers. The diverse collection of books, ranging from classic literature to contemporary stories, reflects the community’s dedication to fostering a love for reading among children who may not have easy access to such resources.
The Book Donation Drive was more than a collection of books; it was a movement to bridge the educational gap for children in need. By providing access to quality reading material, this initiative aims to inspire young minds and open up new avenues for learning and imagination.
Deepti Sharma, Director, of The Lexicon Group, emphasized the significance of the drive, stating, “We believe that education is a fundamental right, and through this initiative, we wanted to ensure that all children have the opportunity to experience the magic of books. This drive is a testament to the power of community when it comes together for a noble cause. We are proud to be a part of this initiative and are confident that the books donated will have a lasting impact on the lives of the children who receive them.”
For the community and Lexicon Kids Viman Nagar, the Book Donation Drive was a valuable learning experience. Through their participation, they learned about the importance of humility, generosity, and the profound impact that even small acts of kindness can have on others. The initiative also highlighted the value of sharing and empathy, core principles that will guide these young students as they grow into responsible and compassionate individuals.
The success of the Book Donation Drive would not have been possible without the collective efforts of the Viman Nagar community. Lexicon Kids Viman Nagar and the Viman Nagar Resident Association extend their deepest gratitude to all the parents, residents, and students who contributed to this noble cause. Your generosity has provided much-needed educational resources to underprivileged children but has also fostered a sense of community and shared responsibility for the betterment of society.
These books will light up the lives of young readers, offering them new perspectives and opportunities that will shape their futures.
