Certainly this is a duty, not a sin. "Cleanliness is indeed next to godliness."
Frankly speaking we don't know whether the above words of John Wesley are true or not , but one thing is sure this campaign helped us in having an idea about what exactly working in a team means. From an early childhood we have heard about "United we stand, Divided we fall." Now we can say that we are one and all. When we started the campaign there were 5 students and within the next 5 minutes there were 25 of them cleaning the campus. For us it was a great achievement as we never expected this many students to come. Baha'u'llah, the great Iranian Philosopher once said that, "So powerful the light of unity, it can light up the whole world" and we are confident about lighting the whole world through this new weapon that we have accomplished.
So now its the picture time.Just look at the pics that we have taken while cleaning the campus.hey guys forgot to say one more thing. today our motto was,"I am not an environmentalist. I am an Earth warrior."

The volunteers for the campaign |
|
At 6.45 am-only 5 guys |
Some 10 students came at 7am including 4 girls. but when we started working other guys came forward and joined us. There is an old English saying which goes like this, "Hope for the best and prepare for the worst." We have only prepared for the worst that and decided that even if less people turn out, we will go with our plan. But 30 volunteers is an amazing number for a starting a campaign from a batch strength of 60.

So thats the end of the campaign. we are going to clean the campus every Monday morning. Till now we did not thought any name for this event. So you can give a suggestion in this matter.
From Wednesday we will start our Awareness campaign on hygienic practices in schools. So wish us good luck. Thank You. Have a good day. |
