Sewa International actively works selflessly for the community with no expectations. I was fortunate to be a part of Sewa via the Aspire Summer Camp. Summer camp is a great idea to keep the children actively engaged, educate them, while they enjoy and have fun. It was a wonderful experience to be with children and interact with them. This has been my first opportunity to be with them. The children were eager to learn and also gave me the opportunity to learn new things.

Loved the enthusiasm in the kids while they learnt Arts, Yoga, Maths English, Robotics,Science and Dramatics.In dramatics, the kids learnt photography. In Science class, the kids were engrossed in the lava lamp, DNA structure using candy etc. In Robotics, they were really excited when their Robots built with legos were in motion .In Arts they were given tracings of Swans, the bald eagle for the 4th of July, the fish etc which they happily colored with vibrant colors. Yoga class was also a great hit where students followed the teachers and showed their own postures too. In Maths and English classes the children actively participated answering the questions put up by the teachers using videos. Dramatics class was in a way Performing Arts class where students were introduced to monologues, dialogues, photography and movie making indoors and outdoors. In Hip hop class the kids thoroughly enjoyed.And last but not the least the children had a 5th grader to teach them origami. They made paper boats, fish, swans and glued them in a blue pond which looked beautiful.

It was wonderful to hear the screams of joy when the kids received their certificates of participation in the Camp. I feel the kids and the Sewa volunteers will miss each other and the activities they learnt at school and will look forward to more such fun camps. Sewa is doing a great job to the community and will blossom in the years to come.
