We from Annajeyam

by Mr. Palaniappan who is also Visually Impaired, where 25 Visually challenged
children are staying who are from various places. The don’t have permanent
home, the children are left by parents who failed to take care of them. Few
have parents who doesn’t take care, few doesn’t have parents. Their basic needs
only are fulfilled in the place where they stay now. We visited the place to
make the children aware of the education and about the job opportunities for
the Visually Challenged. The students over there actively participated and
interested to know at the job opportunities.
Mr Santhosh Kumar

Children’s day Celebration in Sathya girls hostel
Sathya Girls hostel is situated near Gandhi museum, Tallakulam, Madurai . It is a hostel for orphanage and semi orphan students run by Government. There are about 150 – 170 girls studying from 1std to XII are staying in this hostel.
Mr. A.Kamaraj – Founder of Anna Jeyam trust (with the support from his family & friends) organized a children’s day celebration today (25.11.2012 – Sunday) from morning 10 am to 6 pm. They have conducted various games and competition to the students today. Following are some of the individual games conducted today:
1. Drawing
2. Essay writing
4. Biscuit eating competition
5. Singing
6. Painting
7. Blowing balloon
8. Hook and pin
9. Needles and beeds
10. Poem writing competition
11. Fancy dress
12. Art from waste etc…..
They have also organized some team competitions like:
1. Quiz
2. Drama (English & Tamil)
3. Balloon dragging
4. Water passing
5. Group songs etc….
The day was full of fun and joy to those students. All the students participated in the games with lot of energy and happiness. Remember, all these students have practiced on their own and they have excelled in their performances. All the students were provided tea and snacks by the organizers. Prizes were given for all the events to those students who came I, II and III in the competitions. Geometry box, files, crayons, drawing books, pencil box, pouch, pen set, note books etc were given as prizes.
The key point to be mentioned here is the discipline of the students. All the students behaved excellently and they co operated nicely to make this event a grand success. To be frank, we cannot see such a discipline even in some of the top most matriculation schools. The respect they showed to their elder students in the hostel, their encouragement to the other fellow participants were really amazing. We have noticed lot of future scientists, actress, politician, singer, musician, teachers, lawyers, IAS, IPS etc etc today.
Mr. A.Kamaraj and his family are doing a very excellent job by supporting these students through Annajeyam trust. The ultimate aim of this trust is to provide education, job assistance to the poor people and JAWS training for the visually challenged students. Mr. A. Kamaraj is currently working in M/s. IBM, Bangalore and in spite of his hectic official work, he is doing all these works with the marvelous support from his father, mother, brother and sister in law.
Friends, we know how much we waste for an useless movie, un healthy fast foods etc. All these students require was a very little attention and care from our side. Try to spend at least 30 minutes to one hour in a month with them. Try to provide them some good clothes, pen, pencils, note books etc… Some of his friends and supporters are taking free maths, science tution to the students on their holidays. We can really motivate and train these students to achieve greater post in their career. They will never forget us in their life time.
After a very long time, we have spend 4 hours usefully and happily with these children. The happiness and satisfaction we got today, I am sure we will not get in any cinema, park, hotels, theme park etc.. We feel very proud to have a friend like Mr. A. Kamaraj.
There are many more hostels like this in our city and in our country. We can contribute to our country by supporting these children to come up in their life.
Let us all support and motivate to have more number people like A.Kamaraj and his family.s
Regards- Murali
