Footprints Childcare Celebrates 'Joy of Giving Week' with Festive Activities Ahead of DiwaliNew Delhi, October 29, 2024: Footprints Childcare, a renowned preschool and daycare chain, a leading provider of high-quality early education and childcare services, celebrates the ‘Joy of Giving Week’ (Daan Utsav) in the lead-up to Diwali. This special week is dedicated to nurturing kindness, compassion, and generosity in our little ones, and inspiring them to give back to the community. Through a series of meaningful activities, Footprints aims to instill values of sharing and caring, reflecting the true spirit of Diwali.

‘Daan Utsav,’ celebrated nationwide, encourages individuals and communities to engage in charitable acts, volunteer their time, and contribute to social causes. Footprints Childcare has embraced this initiative by organizing various events that nurture empathy and a sense of responsibility among children, parents, and staff.

Raj Singhal, Co-founder & CEO of Footprints, expressed the importance of this initiative, stating, “At Footprints, we believe in holistic development, which includes not only academic learning but also teaching children to be compassionate and to be responsible towards others. The ‘Joy of Giving Week’ is a perfect opportunity for our young learners to understand the value of sharing and giving back, especially as we approach the festival of lights.”

During the ‘Joy of Giving Week’ at Footprints, a range of activities were organized to encourage a spirit of kindness and sharing. Parents participated in a donation drive, contributing gently used toys and books, which will be given to local children in need, helping to build a sense of community and compassion. Children also gathered craft and decor supplies, which will be donated to those without access to creative resources, allowing them to express themselves through art. Allergy-conscious, child-friendly snacks were collected and shared, ensuring everyone could enjoy the week’s celebrations. Age-appropriate books on sharing and generosity were donated by parents and distributed among the children to reinforce the value of giving. Additionally, special donation boxes were placed at each Footprints center, making it easy for families to contribute during drop-off and pick-up times.

In addition to these drives, daily activities were held to immerse children in the spirit of giving. The children also visited a local NGO, where they experienced firsthand the joy of sharing and making a difference in the lives of others.

This initiative not only brings joy to those who receive it but also builds a foundation for the children to grow into empathetic and socially responsible individuals. As a trusted partner in early childhood development, Footprints continues to lead by example, combining education with values that will guide children throughout their lives.
