What it is
Colorss
Foundation celebrates its Annual Day on 15th September. This year, in line with its vision and
mission, a large-scale event is planned to create awareness and attract
membership for the foundation’s cause.
This event is conducted mainly aimed to create awareness
amongst the following groups:
o
Students in Schools and Colleges
o
Corporate Sponsors
o
Social Media Users
Theme
Education is the underlying theme of this event. Education
is considered in its basic form i.e. “Imparting knowledge of the world to
society”. Hence, the subject matters are not restricted to one specific topic
or social cause.
The event will be conducted with a “Green”
color theme. The color green is a natural tone and it indicates peace,
prosperity and enthusiasm. It is hoped that the color theme will compliment the
same qualities in the planned event.
Planned Activities
“One-Page-One-Day”
Event format
The participants are given one page
in a classic literature book and they have to translate it in a corresponding
language. The languages are English to Hindi/Marathi and vice versa as well.
