With a brand-new year commencing, just recently the community service
club celebrated its initiation with a gleeful opening. The new year’s
planning and preparation began during the final days of the 2017-18
session with students wracking their brains for the purpose of discovering
several different methods for establishing and further stabilizing the
education system for the destitute children, collecting relief for annual
flood victims up north, proliferating the research work on cancer and its
cure, etc. Their combined ideas are likely to serve our community and aid
those who need it most, bringing smiles to many faces and brightening
many futures.
This is the session in its initiation. The new club formed only months
prior, has already been set in motion. The first event organized by the
committee has been a splendid success with seventeen club members
attending the 50th ‘Special Olympics’ race held on Friday, 20th July,2018.
The distance from the press club to the high court and back had been
conquered by the students of Scholastica Senior Uttara and Mirpur along
with several other prominent schools led by their respective supervisors.
The meeting, organized by government ministers, consisted of
approximately a hundred volunteers in total parading with banners and
placards with music blasting with lyrics of inspiration. They ended the
hour-long rally with spellbinding enthusiasm and satisfaction, promoting
the significance of the less abled citizens of our society, a cause that can
change many perceptions related to these underprivileged individuals
lacking mental and physical abilities, all while wearing red and white Tshirts
and caps to combat the heat wave.
In the sizzling heat, hot enough to burn away our sweat glands, it was
astounding to witness the students keeping their cool and marching
alongside their companions. The community service club serves not only
to help our community but also inspire us to do the same. We all have
much to learn from them including the need for giving back.
