Extension Activities Center (NSS, YRC & RRC)

Our Extension Activity centre visited the UNIVERSAL PEACE HOME Orphanage on

28th

December, 2015 at 11.00 am. Students of our college were accompanied by Technical

Director (SNS Institution), Dr.N.GUNASEKARAN (Principal SNSCE) and Extension Activity

Programme Officers SNSCE. All of us were deeply touched when we received a warm welcome

from all the students and Brothers/Sisters of the orphanage. There were 161 students, 70 mentally

challenged people and 26 destitute women, 34 Parents neglected by the children, who were

jumping with joy as we interacted with them. The time spent with those peoples made us feel

overwhelmed. The way the children mingled with us, played games and enjoyed music was an

enriching experience for life. We donated foods, biscuits, chocolates, snacks, etc. The children

were happier than one could possibly imagine, it was a riot of happiness.This was amongst one of

those moments that we can never describe. It was memorable, meaningful and a redeeming

morning for all present. The eyes and the smiles of children will linger in our heart for all times to

come.All students felt entrenched with the joy of giving and thus we express our deep sense of

gratitude to the college for arranging this journey towards humanity.All of us are so lost in this

fanciful world of opulence that we hardly seem to notice the other half of deprivation. We have

all the luxuries, yet we always crave for more and more. When we saw this child in Orphanage,

we realized how fortunate we really are. The quote to remember so aptly comes from

UNIVERSAL PEACE HOME herself – “Live with for Peace”.
