This week at ADF was filled with meaningful conversations, new learnings, and moments of connection. Through our sessions and school visits, we continued to support students in learning, growing, and believing in themselves.

💜

We conducted an interactive session at SVKM’s NMIMS, Kharghar, focusing on Stress and Procrastination. Students explored practical ways to manage stress and understand the thoughts that often hold them back from taking action. Through an engaging role-play activity, we helped students recognise their inner critic and understand how self-talk can influence their actions.

The session also explored the connection between social media and procrastination, helping students understand how constant digital distractions can affect focus and productivity. Through research-based insights and practical strategies, students learned ways to manage distractions and take more mindful control of their time.

ADF continued its monthly visits to The Modern English High School, Andheri East, and Shree Dayanand Balak & Balika Vidyalay, Matunga East, strengthening our ongoing connection with students and their educational journeys.
The visits gave us a chance to spend meaningful time with the students, check in on their progress, understand the challenges they may be facing, and provide the guidance and encouragement they need. Through follow-ups and continued support, ADF remains committed to helping students stay motivated, confident, and focused on their goals.

At SIWS College, Wadala, we conducted an engaging session on Social Media Addiction, Peer Pressure, and Identity.
Students explore how social media can influence their daily lives, shape the way they see themselves, and encourage constant comparison with others. We also discussed how the pressure to fit in and belong to a group can sometimes make us say “yes” even when we genuinely want to say “no.”
The session highlighted the importance of setting boundaries, making independent choices, and understanding what truly shapes our identity beyond social media, trends, and peer expectations.

This week brought meaningful opportunities to connect with young minds and create spaces for emotional learning, self-awareness, and reflection .---------→

💜

Dr. D. Y. Patil Arts, Commerce & Science College, Pune
Through an emotional and social skills-building session, students explored anger and the importance of expressing emotions rather than suppressing them. The Anger Iceberg activity helped them look beyond visible anger and understand the emotions underneath frustration, exhaustion, disappointment, and feeling overwhelmed. 🧊

Through a creative paper activity on resilience, students reflected on how challenges may shake us, but resilience helps us rise, rebuild, and keep moving forward. The session concluded with a guided imagery exercise, giving students a peaceful moment to pause, relax, and reconnect with themselves. 🌸

Abbasaheb Atre English Medium Primary & High School, Pune
Our interaction with young learners focused on creating a supportive space for learning, connection, and emotional awareness because helping children understand themselves is an important step toward building confident, emotionally aware individuals. 🌱

Fr. Conceicao Rodrigues College of Engineering, Bandra West
Our engagement with the students created another meaningful space to explore emotional well-being, self-awareness, and the skills that help young minds navigate everyday challenges with greater understanding. 💙

ADF conducted its monthly visits to Utkarsha Mandir High School (Malad East & West) and A. B. Goregaokar English School, Goregaon West, continues its commitment to staying connected with students and supporting them beyond the classroom. The visits offered an opportunity to interact with the students, understand their academic needs, and follow up on their educational journey. ADF support, and ensure that every student has the encouragement and resources they need to continue their education with confidence and move forward towards their aspirations.

Every Saturday, ADF visits Bal Anand to spend time with the children and remind them that they are cared for, supported, and never alone.

Our visits go beyond just meeting the child

“Bappa ko yeh pasand hai, toh hum bhi try karenge!” 🥹❤️

During Ganpati celebrations, we often see people choosing decorations, prasad, outfits, or even traditions because someone we trust recommends them.

That’s the Endorsement Effect: when the approval or recommendation of someone we value can influence our choices.
