Shubhra Awasthi, New Delhi

Friends, its my pleasure to introduce another young donor Shubhra Awasthi. She is postgraduate in English and B.ed. She teaches in a school and so very well knows the importance of education. Shubhra emphasizes “Like water is to living education is to earn livelihood”. She was Born in a middle class educated family. Her parents and school inculcated moral values within her. So she was looking to help blue pens flyover kids in some way by donating clothes. She wants to give them education. Thats why she felt blue pen is d best NGO she has ever joined which gives selfless service to slum and poor kids from education to their allround development

Discuasing about her Family background, shubhra says, “My father is an accountant mother is housewife she takes tuition classes at home as told earlier we like doing social service I think it helps in bringing smile on someone’s face ..so my mother teaches two students free of cost coz dey r not having enough money to spend on education I got inspired by mom I tried to help others n joined blue pen

Elaborating more about her past experience, shubra continues, “In school I was member of rotary club. I was also for social service in college member of NSS n now blue pen which keeps me going on with something gud … and i think these values n thoughts are just because of my parents”

Friends,We all need to appreciate that there is no joy greater than “joy of giving”. While we r enjoying cosy homes in this chilling winter and enjoy decent lifestyles full of warmth, there r thousands of unfortunate deprived ones on streets, who cant afford any shelter and are left with no option but to shiver whole night without blanket.

I would request all viewers to come forward and use distribution network of Blue Pen to donate New/Old items like Toys, Blankets for upcoming winters, Toys, Clothes, School Bags or other Daily utility items, for our Flyover/Slum kids/Women.

Blue Pen provides best way of celebrating Birthday/Anniversaries of your and Dear ones. It will be great if Donor himself comes and donate by hand, else Blue Pen also provides facility of picking up this stuff from your home and distribute it on your behalf.
