UAE women visitors interact with J&K Yateem Foundation scholars
Srinagar, Apr 29: In a rare loving gesture, a group of women visitors from the United Arab Emirates (UAE) visited Baitul Hilal Jawahar Nagar in Srinagar.
The group had informal interaction with the children of Baitul Hilal Jawahar Nagar Srinagar, Chawalgam Kulgam and Iqbal Nagar Sopore. The visitors though had little communication barrier due to different language, however, their Kashmiri guide facilitated proceedings of the session in Arabic.
The visitors played several games with children who felt elated over loving nature and treatment of the guests from UAE.
The women group treated the Baitul Hilal scholars just like their own children and showered immense love and affection upon them during interactive sessions.
The guests gifted track suits, sports, edible and other items to over 100 children of Baitul Hilal situated in Central, North and South Kashmir.
The guests donated some cash among the children.
The visitors toured all the rooms and had a firsthand account of the various facilities of boarding, lodging and education at Baitul Hilal.
Earlier, Chairman JKYF Mohammad Ahsan Rather welcomed the women visitors and gave detailed appraisal of the battery of educational, welfare and rehabilitation programmes run by JKYF irrespective of caste, colour, creed, region or religion across Jammu and Kashmir. He sought more interactive sessions from the guests who assured full moral and other support.
Chairman extended gratitude to the visiting group and requested them to continue their interaction with the children and help them in their education and future careers.
On the occasion, Rather appealed to people to also continue their visits in person to Baitul Hilals by spending leisure time with orphan children so that they do not develop a sense of seclusion and despair while staying and studying at orphanages.
Among others who welcomed and received the guests included Incharge Baitul Hilal Jawahar Nagar Srinagar and JKYF PRO, Bashir Ahmad Bhat, several volunteers and staff at Baitul Hilal Jawahar Nagar Srinagar.
