Rotary Club of Vasco da gama

The first time I experienced and understood 'the joy of giving' was a few years back. I am not able to recollect the exact year when it happened but it was a very trivial gesture of sharing my food at a local eatery with a small child who was begging for alms. I realised that day the fact that the biggest earning one can earn is the satisfaction of having shared your privileges with the under privileged. The look on the face of the child on receiving the puff that was given was what we all the time strive to acheive. And the same look on the child's face gave me a sense of deepest satisfaction and fulfillment.

I experienced the same feeling again the day we handed the bus to the Ashadeep school. The students of the school present during the ceremony expressed all that they had to say through the expressions on their faces. I want to thank my IPP Rtn.Dattaraj for identifying the need for the bus and most importantly our partners in the matching grant project,R.C. Of Cottlevile/Weldon Spring, Dist6060, Dist 7260, Dist 6840 and The Rotary Foundation. May God bless all those who have been a part of this project in whatsoever way they have helped. Long live the spirit of Rotary
