A Day of Hearts: Our First Offline Meetup with Our Students

After six wonderful months of online teaching, we finally met our students in person — and it was nothing short of magical. The academy welcomed us with immense warmth, offering not just food but genuine affection that made us feel at home. Teachers planned fun-filled activities, crafted heartfelt cards, and prepared gift hampers filled with laddus, chocolates, and surprises for the kids. The moment the cake was cut, laughter and joy filled the air. What touched us most was the love our students showered upon us — their hugs, smiles, and excitement made every effort worthwhile. The day was an emotional symphony of laughter, tears, and pure happiness. We celebrated not just learning, but the beautiful bond that education creates beyond screens. It was a day to remember — a day when virtual connections turned into real, heartfelt relationships.

Breaking the Silence: Menstrual Hygiene Awareness Drive by Nivedan Foundation

Breaking the Silence: Menstrual Hygiene Awareness Drive by Nivedan Foundation

The Nivedan Foundation Unit of Indraprastha College for Women (IPCW) conducted a Menstrual Hygiene and Taboo Awareness Drive at Seva Bharti Kendra, with the aim of breaking long-standing silences and empowering women through knowledge and dialogue. The drive was part of the unit’s continuous commitment to social outreach and women’s welfare, focusing on creating awareness about menstrual health, hygiene practices, and the harmful effects of taboos that continue to surround menstruation. The session began with an interactive discussion, where participants were encouraged to share their personal experiences and beliefs about menstruation. Many women and girls from the local community came forward to speak about the restrictions they face — being kept out of kitchens, temples, and social gatherings — and the shame often associated with menstruation. Volunteers patiently addressed these concerns, explaining the scientific and biological reality of menstruation, emphasizing that it is a natural process and an essential indicator of women’s reproductive health. The conversation gradually evolved from hesitation to openness, transforming the space into one filled with understanding, empathy, and collective learning. Volunteers also demonstrated correct menstrual hygiene practices, stressing the importance of using clean sanitary materials, changing them at regular intervals, and maintaining personal hygiene to prevent infections. Alongside this, the team introduced sustainable menstrual alternatives such as reusable cloth pads and menstrual cups, explaining their benefits for both health and the environment. Visual aids and simple language were used to ensure clarity and inclusivity, enabling every participant to relate and understand. The discussion on myths and superstitions proved particularly impactful, as volunteers debunked common misconceptions with facts and sensitivity, encouraging women to challenge stigma within their families and communities. The response from the women at Seva Bharti was overwhelmingly positive. Many asked questions, expressed gratitude, and shared that they had never before been given the chance to talk about these issues so openly. The event concluded with an emotional yet empowering reflection, where participants voiced their determination to spread this awareness to other women in their neighborhoods. For the volunteers of the Nivedan Foundation Unit, the drive was not just an act of service but a learning experience that deepened their understanding of how deeply social taboos affect everyday lives. It reinforced the belief that real change begins with education, empathy, and conversation. The Menstrual Hygiene and Taboo Awareness Drive at Seva Bharti, Kirti Nagar stood as a testament to the power of community engagement and youth-led initiatives. By transforming stigma into strength and silence into dialogue, the Nivedan Foundation Unit of IPCW continues to uphold its vision of building an informed, confident, and compassionate society — one where menstruation is no longer whispered about in shame, but spoken of with pride and awareness.

Project Panchtatva: Make and Mend Drive

Project Panchtatva: Make and Mend Drive

What do old t-shirts and delicate, pressed flowers have in common? They both got a beautiful second life thanks to Project Panchtatva's recent, inspiring recycling drive! ​The initiative, rooted in the spirit of sustainability, was a brilliant blend of upcycling and artistry. Volunteers and participants came together to transform what might have been considered waste into useful, charming items. ​Threads of Change: The first segment tackled textile waste, converting worn-out t-shirts into chic and reusable tote bags. This simple yet impactful transformation showcased how easy it is to divert fabric from landfills, turning a faded tee into a durable bag perfect for shopping or carrying books. ​Blossoms of Creativity: The second, equally enchanting activity focused on creating unique bookmarks from preserved flowers. Delicate petals and leaves, pressed and sealed, were transformed into little windows of nature, offering a beautiful, eco-friendly way to save your place in a book. ​Project Panchtatva's drive wasn't just about crafting; it was a hands-on lesson in reducing our ecological footprint and finding beauty in upcycled materials. It proves that a little creativity is all it takes to make sustainability both fun and functional.

Under Project Panchatatva – Sustaining Sustainability, Nivedan Foundation organized a heartfelt drive, “Creating Wonders from Plastic”, to inspire young minds and communities towards a greener tomorrow. What began as an awareness initiative soon transformed into a celebration of creativity, learning, and collective responsibility. • Turning Waste into Wonders Plastic is often seen as waste, but in the right hands, it can be turned into something meaningful. During the drive, children and volunteers came together to repurpose discarded plastic bottles into beautiful, functional items.

A Pause in Time: Our Visit to the Old Age Home

A Pause in Time: Our Visit to the Old Age Home

"Some moments don't ask for grand gestures — just presence, patience, and a listening heart." 👴🌼👵🎨 Over the past month of holidays, while the world outside buzzed with plans and getaways, we found ourselves in a space far removed from the noise — an old age home, where time moves gently and every wrinkle tells a story. With *Nivedan Foundation*, we stepped into a world where love is quiet, conversations are deep, and small acts of care leave lasting impressions. What began as a simple visit turned into an experience that moved each one of us. We listened. We laughed. We painted. We sat in silence. And in those simple exchanges, something shifted within us. "While the world outside rushed forward, we chose to pause—and sit beside time itself." 💫🧿 There’s something incredibly humbling about being in the presence of those who have lived full lives — who have seen joy, endured pain, and still greet you with a soft smile. They didn’t ask for much — just our time, our attention, and a little warmth. We may have gone to share happiness, but we returned carrying something far more meaningful — a deeper understanding of connection, empathy, and what it truly means to care. Grateful to *Nivedan Foundation* for making this possible — for reminding us that even in holidays, we can choose purpose. #NivedanFoundation #OldAgeHomeVisit #CompassionInAction #RealConnections #PurposefulHolidays #LearningByServing #TimeWellSpent #HumanValues #YouthWithHeart #CommunityCare

Project Tejas: Paryavaran ki Paathshala – A Step Towards Green Learning

Project Tejas: Paryavaran ki Paathshala – A Step Towards Green Learning

Under Project Tejas – Educate • Inspire • Empower, a unique initiative titled Paryavaran ki Paathshala was organized to introduce children to the values of sustainability and environmental care. The aim was simple yet powerful: to create a space where young minds could learn about the environment in ways that felt engaging, creative, and memorable. • A Classroom of Colors and Conversations The session brought together children from the community, volunteers, and well-wishers who believe in the strength of education. Instead of lectures or books, the children were given drawing sheets and crayons. Through colors and sketches, they expressed what the Earth meant to them. Some drawings showed a flourishing green planet with trees, birds, and clean air, while others reflected the harsh reality of pollution and neglect. These artworks spoke volumes. They revealed not only the children’s imagination but also their understanding that our actions today will shape the world they inherit tomorrow. • Why Paryavaran ki Paathshala Matters Environmental awareness is often spoken about in meetings, classrooms, and campaigns — but rarely is it communicated to those who need it most: the younger generation growing up in underserved communities. By teaching through art and stories, this drive made environmental issues real and relatable. Studies have shown that children remember lessons better when they are linked with creativity. This was evident as the children proudly held up their drawings, explaining what a clean environment looks like and how each one of us can protect it. • A Community That Learns Together What made the day special was the sense of togetherness. Volunteers sat with the children, guiding them, listening to their questions, and learning in return. Parents and community members too became part of the discussions. Small but meaningful promises were made — to save water, reduce waste, avoid plastic, and plant more trees. Every child walked away not just with a drawing, but with a thought: the Earth is ours to protect. • Building the Future, One Session at a Time Paryavaran ki Paathshala is not a one-day event. It is the beginning of a journey to make sustainability a natural part of children’s learning. Under Project Tejas, the goal is to continue creating such platforms where education is not confined to books but is connected to life, responsibility, and action. With every session, every conversation, and every drawing, we are moving closer to a community that is not only educated but also inspired and empowered to protect the world around them.
