*LCB Yashas - Service Report – Uniform & Pencil Kit Distribution at Need Base India*
On 20th July 2026, Lions Club of Bangalore Yashas, in association with Hitha Chintana Charitable Trust, conducted a meaningful service activity at Need Base India, Jalahalli, distributing school uniforms and pencil kits to 80 deserving children, amounting to ₹60,000.
The evening was much more than a distribution drive. It was a time of learning, laughter, and inspiration as we spent quality time interacting with the children and encouraging them to discover the joy of reading.
We were privileged to have:
Lion Ramya Shekhar, District Coordinator – New Voices
Lion Aruna Reddy, District Chairperson – Reading Action Program
Lion Aruna Reddy passionately spoke about the lifelong habit of reading. She encouraged the children to spend less time on television and mobile phones and more time reading books that spark imagination and expand knowledge. She introduced them to the timeless wisdom of the Ramayana and Pancha Ta**ra, and gave them a simple assignment to learn and share stories from these classics.
Lion Ramya Shekhar inspired the students to stay informed about current affairs, think about their future careers from an early age, and understand how knowledge and awareness can shape their journey in life.
Lion Lalitha inspired the kids through her kind words and actions, as always. The session concluded on a joyful note with everyone singing together, leaving smiles on every face and warmth in every heart.
Our heartfelt gratitude to Hitha Chintana Charitable Trust for generously sponsoring the school uniforms, and to District Chairperson Lion Aruna Reddy, Reading Action Program, for sponsoring the pencil kits. Their support helped make this initiative a memorable and meaningful experience for every child.
Together, we didn’t just distribute uniforms and stationery—we sowed the seeds of confidence, curiosity, and hope.
