Bengaluru, 27th August, 2017: The Social Responsibility Committee of Symbiosis Institute of Business Management (SIBM), Bengaluru organised Utthaan 2017 on Sunday, 27th August 2017. The theme of this year’s event was Candy Land – Where Dreams Taste like Cotton Candy” which came with the intent of giving a bunch of underprivileged children, a taste of their most cherished dreams.
This year, 112 children came to the college campus for the one-day event from various
NGOs in and around Bengaluru, namely:
? Belaku Shishu Nivasa
? Anatha Shishu Nivasa
? Makkala Jeevodaya
? Sadashraya Charitable Trust
The event is organised every year to unearth the hidden talents of these children in a way
that makes the future managers realise the importance of sharing joy and compassion.
“If you see someone without a smile, give them yours.” Said Dr. Subramaniam, faculty,
SIBMB, the Chief Guest for the day.
The day began with an energetic performance by Jhankaar, The Dance Club of SIBMB which
led all the kids to the dance floor. This was followed by a Talent Show which unveiled
virtuosity of the young singers and dancers. The performances were illustrated by
cartwheels, human pyramids and melodious voices which left the audience mesmerised.
The Art and Craft activity that followed had little dreams taking different shapes through
paint brushes and folded papers as the creative minds of the little children came up with
beautiful dreamcatchers. Games like Follow The Path, Paper Plane Race and Sock Basket
served a dual purpose of learning and having fun. Later, the magician fascinated the children
with his magic tricks.
“All we hope is to give these underprivileged children a day to remember. Every year
Utthaan has sprinkled moments of unconditional happiness into the lives of hundreds of
kids. I am glad this year too, we managed to make it great and give these little kids a
memory to live”, said Sruti Ghosh, coordinator of the Social Responsibility Committee of
SIBMB.
Utthaan 2017 ended with the distribution of goodie bags to the children which lit up their
eyes and brought a heartfelt smile on everyone’s face. The students bid farewell to the
children as they formed human chains skirting the path through which the kids were sent off
with a promise of welcoming them again next year.
