Testimonials
The efforts of the teachers as well as Ms. Sujata and Dr. Bhavani are
absolutely astonishing. The kids are very eager to learn; much
disciplined and speak excellent English. This organization has done
extremely wonderful things for the children they sponsor.

The trust is an amazing achievement; the children are all very talented
and extremely lucky, as they have now been given opportunities by the
trust. I have enjoyed my time greatly and will miss the children.

I have had such a great time working with the children at Ashwini. I
will try to come back for many visits before I leave. To Sujata and
Bhavani: you have done such a wonderful job. I am proud to be associated
with Ashwini.

Thanks to everyone here. I have really never had such a positive
experience with an NGO. It was a great honor to work with you. I hope to
return and wish you all and the children the best of luck until I do.

As a child, you are constantly told
how a good human being helps less fortunate people. Somewhere along the
line you start thinking that just knowing this fact is good enough and
the thought of actually getting out of your house and helping others
doesn't even strike. Ma is the who I have to thank for making me take
that step towards actually helping people.
Thinking about it now, it wasn't me that helped the kids. The kids
helped me. True, I taught them a few dance steps and true I attempted to
teach a few of the little ones the sounds of alphabets but that's all.
These kids (whom I can't really call kids
given that some of them are older than me!!) have helped me so much
more. You wouldn't believe the number of times their excitement has made
me smile. During the dance rehearsals, their enthusiasm made my day!! I
managed to drag myself out of the house on sleepy Sunday afternoons only
so that i could receive the little ones' happy greetings and to play
'Candy Land' with Ma's students once she was done teaching them :) .
So, I guess I must admit my intentions are quite selfish. I came the
first time because I wanted to help but I kept coming back because they
made me happy.

The ACT family – includes sponsors,
trustees, volunteers, children, their parents et al with every attempt
of theirs make me strongly believe in “When you want something, all the
universe conspires in helping you to achieve it...”
It’s a benevolent work of charity and blessed are thy children.

When i think of ACT.. i think of the
Giraffe, the elephant and the cute cartoons painted on the walls of the
RC. They are so cute that whoever passes by will surely peep in to see
what's the place about.. i get the picture of mother(s) welcoming me
with so much of hope in her eyes that i ( a volunteer) would guide her
child to become something better than she is ( better - financially and
becoming independent ) . The Trustees, who appreciate any act, however
small by done anybody (the volunteers, parents or kids ).. And most of
all the loving kids.. so enthusiastic about learning and sharing .. Its
a place where i learn and receive so much more than i teach and give..
Thanks sujata and bhavani..

When I think of Ashwini
Trust, Smile is the word that comes to my mind. The glittering little
eyes filled with promise and confidence. The enthusiasm in the children
to learn and grasp the knowledge. I feel ACT emphasis the fact that
imparting Education at the right time is the key towards
building a better world. Its a great feeling to be associated
with the journey towards reconciliation and enlightenment.

I am not much of a
computer person and i know this might sound tacky, but i have to tell
you guys that the 1 hour 3 times a week that i spend with the little
ones is the best thing that has happened to me. For a menopausal woman
who has been cribbing about aches and pains for the last couple of
years, i suddenly seem to be feeling fine when i am at the centre. I
wish i was part of ACT much earlier.
I didnt know what to expect the first day when i walked into the centre,
but i was so pleasantly surprised seeing a bunch of happy, smiling and
enthusiastic children. They are so wonderful and each one of them gives
me so much pleasure ...... i could go on
