We had a good week this month. Pammi and Seema weren't allowed by their parents to come to the NGO anymore, therefore all our other participants decided to go and speak with the family, they did so and now after the talking, which happened at Pammi's and Seema's home, the girls are regular to the project, their father was not happy sending the girls to the NGO, he simply said there is no reason for them to come to the project and that they instead shall help in the family jobs (peeling garlic, cleaning, washing, cooking, looking after the young siblings).

We organized a wonderful workshop where the participants learnt hair- and body-care, the hair- and body-care specialist Mr. Anil from the Expose named Fancy Saloon came and did a free workshop. Suneeta was happy to provide him her hair as she shampooed them the same day.
The workshop lasted for 6 hours, hahahha, yes sooo long, they left for home that day at 5.00 pm or so, after Suneetas Mr. Anil wanted to provide the hair cut to all those who were interested, 14 girls came up for the offer, all did their shampoo at workshop and got their hair cut, NEW WOMEN!!!! AMAZING CHANGE. They loved themselves with the new hair styles. Anil loved doing it volunteerly, he is the only one of the few people in Jodhpur who, since I started the NGO, gave such time and happiness to the participants of the project without expecting something back from it.

Mr. Gernot our volunteer didn't seem very happy with the hair- and body-care workshop turning into hair cut "ceremony". Later read in Mr. Gernot's report for the month, but my happiness is only when our participants are happy and I would do anything possible for them to experiance and try anything different that they wouldn't in their lives. When they came the next day after the hair cut, they said some of their parents like the hair cut and only 2 of the parents of participants who are getting married in 2 months time weren't happy for half an hour or so but our participants made them feel good again by giving them soap as present. The participants look different and seem different with their energy, especially Sandhya who refused for the hair cut, then she agreed and was the last one to get it, was very happy with her hair style and was wearing her hair today also like yesterday after the hair cut.
Mr. Gernot was also promised by particpants to get a hair cut and then slowly he looked little more relaxed later in the evening. |
