India: Celebrating 69 years of Independence

Today, we are a nation that stands tall- the world’s largest democracy, to match our strides with the Americas and Englands of the world in every sphere. When the chorus of Cassandras rise, it helps us reflect on where we were 69 years ago, and where we are today. What reason do we have not to feel anything but proud of our brilliant accomplishments?

Looking back at our past, we can get a notion of how hard we have struggled to reach this zenith of success. Our freedom-fighters, with their relentless toil, have earned our country’s independence.

Why is it that India never invaded other countries? Surely not because we are weak. It is because we, the Indians have been blessed with the gift of tolerance. Despite unfulfilled promises, grim prognoses and failed messiahs, the Republic has endured everything thrown at its face. It is surely a miracle-the way India has withstood and surmounted all the odds-the chronic and extant tides of highs and lows that has besieged it, time and again. India has vanquished all evils with her brandishing sword of tolerance.

Keeping in mind the philosophies and ideals of the heroes of yester years, some of them fulfilled, some of them not, we, the youngsters of tomorrow, must take up the responsibility to work hard to make this a better India. Our aspirations for India should be more corrective than progressive.

Heroism should be a quality to strive for and patriotism should be an awareness, not a mere emotional display reserved for the Independence Day alone. We should all aspire to purge the country’s wounds and purify it to an extent where the world looks up to us and exclaims “Saare jahan se achha!”, indeed.

We all look forward to a day when every Indian’s dream is transformed to reality. And to achieve this, we need to shape the impressionable young minds by urging them to pick up their pens. Be it the young boy who toils by the candle-light or the little girl who walks miles to go to school,  every effort made towards education will lead to a brighter future for the individuals, the society and the country as a whole.

Colorss Foundation , an NGO based in Baroda, Gujarat and having its presence in Pune, Maharashtra in India aims to do just that by helping children become more independent and empowered through projects based in arts, technology and science.

It decided to do its bit in contributing to the spirit of Independence Day this year by organizing a drawing competition for its students. The topic- Swachh Bharat & Independence Day. The cleanliness campaign championed by our Honourable Prime Minister is perhaps one of utmost importance because in order to ignite the youth of our nation to build a better India, we need to provide them with a clean and healthy environment for their holistic development. The youth can carry forward this mission as a regular project and pass it on to the generations to come because we want this initiative to last forever.  By inculcating this idea of a cleaner India, Colorss Foundation achieved something spectacular-it helped in motivating the youngsters to come up with creative ideas to present to the world a cleaner India.

Apart from that, this Independence Day, Colorss also released one more edition of its E-zine (project Colors Of Life) which was highly praised and appreciated by the school authorities. Vision ignites minds. What we need today are great minds-great visionaries who can inspire an entire generation! We should take a solemn oath to keep the lamp of knowledge burning bright and give our everything to help build a better and brighter India. Let our sweat and toil create Agnis that can annihilate evil!

Friends, Indians, countrymen-come let us join forces and work towards this goal of unleashing the power within. Let us go to dust as proud citizens of this glorious nation, to rise again and revel in its splendour.

'Do Good, Feel Good' initiative

Anand Koti runs a "Do Good, Feel Good" initiative, where 40% of the proceeds from the self-defense workshops are directed to help the efforts of the Colorss Foundation where the under-priveliged females, both young and old, are trained for Free in self-defense. If you wish to see Koti's LinkedIn profile - https://www.linkedin.com/in/anandkoti

Eve-teasing, undesired stares, men lurking in dark allies..these are some of the everyday fears that women in India have to live with. With 19 years of martial arts practice and another nine years of experience in training others, Koti has made it his mission to protect women by teaching them self-defense. We are happy to get the support from Koti. You can have a look at their website www.anandkoti.com and their social media accounts: - www.facebook.com/anandkotidotcom | www.twitter.com/anandkoti | www.instagram.com/anandkoti for more information. 

To keep yourself updated with latest Health and Fitness related topics and to learn more about Ergonomics read their blog as and when you get time. https://anandkotiblog.wordpress.com

Koti, is leading Mission 1000 project which is one of the promising projects at Colorss Foundation, Mission 1000 is focused on training young girls and women in self-defense techniques. Mission 1000 aims to reach out to at least 1000 underprivileged women and girls every year. By equipping each child with self-defense skills, Mission 1000 hopes to tackle the sexual abuse, which include harassment, assault and rape, against women in India. As Mission 1000 believes in providing free-of-charge self-defense workshops, this programme largely relies on donated funds.

Taught by the founder of Colorss himself, Anand Koti, the students have been learning several skills on how to punch, kick and block assaults. Each child has also left each session with a boost in her stamina, self-esteem and confidence.

Mission 1000 makes a difference to the lives of these young women. Those who have completed the Mission 1000 workshops express gratitude in learning self-defense. Some have even taught these skills to their own family members. The daily fear of being harassed is now a thing of the past for many of these young women, who are now more confident in interacting with society. Students undergoing Mission 1000 workshops will leave with a certificate and a new set of skills that they can use to protect themselves and their future. Along with learning kicks, punches, blocks and self-defense techniques the girls also enjoy meditation, which is also the part of the workshop. Meditation has helped the girls release stress.

Give a Book, Help Children Read!

Do you have books that you don’t need anymore?

Do you want to help children read?

Join the Library Project!

Colorss Foundation is looking for any new or used books that can help 8 to 16 year old children read. 

With your help, Colorss hopes to fill the shelves of the libraries in Mahadji Shinde High School and Dr. Ambedkar Memorial and Technical High School in Pune, Government School in Rajupura, Baroda with your donated books. 

Although the books that Colorss has brought to these schools have added immense value to the students’ education, there is still a lack of necessary books. If these books are not provided soon, this can limit the students’ learning.

 

What do they need?

The students need books that can help them study their subjects in school. The books will need to cover topics related to Hindi, English, Maths, Science, Social Studies, History and Geography. Books written in the English Language will also be useful, as the students need to become fluent in speaking and reading English. We would encourage books that are in English to be simple, easy and descriptive for them. Additionally, dictionaries that can translate Marathi-English, English-Marathi, Gujarati-English and English-Gujarati are highly appreciated.

How can I help?

Drop us an email at emailcolorss@gmail.com or leave a post on our Facebook wall (https://www.facebook.com/colorssfoundation). Tell us that you would like to help or have some books to donate! We will excitedly get back to you and arrange the easiest way to deliver the books.

We would like to thank you for reaching out to us and to these students. Every single donated book counts as each book brings a child to a new world of imagination and knowledge!

Colorss Runs a Brain Gym

WHAT WE ARE UP TO : Colorss Runs a Brain Gym

The Colorss’ team at the government school in Rajupura, Baroda, has recently ran a Brain Gym for students in Grades 1 to 4, to help them learn the numbers from 1 to 100. The children responded positively to the activity, and were able to learn the sequence of numbers through the creative brain game. 

 Students prepare for the Brain Gym

The Brain Gym conducted a housing activity, where students were given cards, which mentioned numbers 1 to 100. The volunteers would throw a set of dice and indicate the number on the dices on their own sheet. This would be related to a specific material within a house on the volunteer’s sheet, with a number on it. This number is then flashed to the students. Excitedly, the students would identify the corresponding number on their flashcards, mark the number and spell it out to the rest of the class.

Within 90 minutes, the students finished playing the game and were asked for feedback. Soon enough, we learned that after the activity, most of the students were able to learn all the numbers from 1 to 100. This is a huge accomplishment as a large number of students across four grades were able to recall a wide range of numbers as a result of the Brain Gym.

Students enthusiastically participate in the Brain Gym

This Brain Gym activity not only improved the students’ ability to memorise numbers from 1 to 100, but also greatly contributed to their personal development. The activity boosted their concentration levels and self-confidence in their own cognitive skills.

 Students pose during the Brain Gym Activity

The positive outcome of the Housing Activity within the Brain Gym led the Principal Mr. Kanti Bhai to express his interest in the activity. He appreciated the effort put into running the Brain Gym and encouraged the school to continue holding similar activities in the future.

WHAT WE ARE UP TO

Project Urja Designs Diyas

  

In anticipation of Diwali, the Festival of Lights, Project Urja has been busy designing diyas that are to be offered for sale. This recent initiative not only celebrates Diwali but also helps improve the financial status of women through the sale of the products they make.

 Designer diyas produced by Project Urja

Designer diyas are earthen pots that can be used as small pots for Diwali celebration. These pots are colored individually, with each diya reflecting an innovative idea that combines their hard-work and creativity. As a result, Project Urja produces designer diyas in various colours and patterns that depict the tradition of Diwali.  

 Project Urja Women Creating Diyas

Through initiatives such as this, Project Urja hopes to continue helping women gain more economic independence by imparting skills that can be used to generate more income for them. Project Urja is now aiding 25 women through its vision and hopes to help more women in the near future.

Project Urja Learns Paper Quilling - #Baroda

WHAT WE ARE UP TO

Project Urja Learns Paper Quilling

As a Colorss initiative aimed towards fostering economic independence amongst disadvantaged women, Project Urja helps empower women by teaching them skills that can be used to generate an income. Since its inception, Project Urja has successfully swelled to a group of around 25 women, who have recently been busy paper quilling.

Women of Project Urja learn Paper Quilling

Paper quilling is a creative art form that rolls, shapes and glues together strips of paper to create decorative designs. These designs can then be used to decorate several items, from storage boxes to greeting cards.

Paper Quilling Products

As keen learners, the women of Project Urja quickly picked up paper quilling after only a two-hours training session. They were immediately able to produce paper quilling outputs, and look forward to making more products such as designer envelopes and decorative wall fixtures.

Project Urja Women with their Paper Quilling products

Villagers pose with the Paper Quilling Outputs

With their acute ability to pick up skills and serious dedication, Project Urja is confident that the women’s paper quilling products would continuously improve in quality in the future. We look forward to more paper quilling from Project Urja!

Today's spotlight is on Palak Nagar, a volunteer at the Foundation that helped develop the second version of our Quick Self Defense Application for all Android platforms. Aside from being endowed with computer skills at her fingertips, Palak also has a genuine passion in helping women." 

Palak Nagar is a Computer Science Engineer with a passion in helping women.

Join us as we get to know her better!

Who is your inspirational role model? My father.

When I’m not volunteering, I’m a Computer Science Engineer.

I have been volunteering with Colorss for one year.

In Colorss Foundation, I am involved in Project Enhance.

Why did you volunteer at Colorss Foundation? I volunteered at Colorss because this organisation basically works for women. Through this organisation, many girls have learned self-defence, which is very worthwhile in today’s era.

I like volunteering at Colorss Foundation because I like the attitude the Foundation has towards each other and towards every human being. Its members are very kind, helpful and highly understanding. They understand the circumstances of everyone.

What have you learned from volunteering at Colorss? I have learned a little bit of self-defense, especially the easy techniques. I picked this up while developing the Self Defense Application. As I am also a girl, I need to learn self-defense to help overcome bad situations.

To check out the Self-Defense Application that Palak helped develop, download the app from the Google Play Store here.

Nielsen Global Impact Day 2014 with Colorss at Baroda | Colorss Foundation

On April 20th, 2014 Colorss Foundation gave a shout out on Twitter and Facebook for people to donate a sewing machine for Project Urja. On June 12th, 2014 this request was fulfilled by Nielsen on the Nielsen Global Impact Day (NGID). This donation was made to Colorss Foundation as part of Nielsen Cares, Baroda initiative.

#colorss #womenempowerment #nielsencares - Team Colorss at Baroda

Colorss was founded by Anand Koti with a mission to give a platform to like-minded people to work towards empowering socially deprived children and ensuring their right to education. Hence the project 'Colors of Life' was started in Pune. Since its inception in 2008, Colorss has come a long way and spearheaded many more projects.  A learning over a period of time and initiatives, that a child cannot progress in isolation and that the mother is the most instrumental factor of this empowerment process gave birth to Project Urja.

#innocence #cute #children #colorss #joyofgiving

Colorss Foundation started Project Urja with a focus to empower rural women to become entrepreneurs and in turn become self-reliant citizens inspite of limited opportunities. This program marked a step ahead in this direction through this generous donation. Slums of Indiranagar, Baroda participated in various activities that Colorss Foundation and Nielsen had organised to celebrate and spread awareness about Project Urja.

The day's plan had something for each community member. A drawing competition was held which saw more than 60 children in the age group of 6-11 years take part from Sanjay Nagar - 1 and Sanjay Nagar - 2 slums of Indira Nagar. The kids also had fun playing various other games while their mothers got a health check up at the general medical health camp conducted on the day. Free medicines will be provided as per their prescriptions in the coming week to more than 65 women who participated in the camp by Nielsen.  A workshop was also conducted to emphasize the value of managing time and finances in the lives of these women who play multiple roles of a mother, daughter, wife, friend and confidante to feed and nurture their families as well as contribute to their communities. The objective was to reach out to these women and motivate them to join Project Urja.

Ms Sophie Joseph Vice President of Nielsen sharing her thoughts about Colorss

The men were definitely not forgotten. A short informative skit was performed by the Nielsen team to put forth the ills of alcoholism. In spite of Gujarat being a dry state, alcohol is still playing havoc in the lives of rural and marginalized population. This is affecting whole families and especially children. The performance addressed the negative impact an alcoholic father can have on the education of a girl child. A message for rehabilitation through de-addiction camps was communicated to help reform the fathers.

Nielsen Global Impact Day with Colorss Foundation in Baroda ended with a prize distribution for the winners of the drawing competition and hot and delicious Chai-Samosa for refreshments. But Colorss' engagement has definitely not ended with Baroda. Colorss Foundation through the Nielsen cares initiative reached out to over 200 people from the community. The foundation aims to bring together a lot more people from other parts of Baroda to grow Project Urja. Colorss also hopes the society to come forward and get involved through monetary or/and volunteering support. You can started by visiting their website/ blog to know more about their various other projects. Don't forget to follow them on Facebook , Twitter and YouTube to show your support and stay updated.

Project ‘Perfect Posture’ is a unique initiative by Colorss Foundation

In today’s increasingly fast paced life, we push ourselves to achieve more and end up neglecting something very important - ‘Our Body’. One very common example is incorrect body postures while performing day to day activities. The ill effects manifest only after a while though the damage is happening continuously. While the problem is ‘Negligence’ for some it is ‘Ignorance’ for many others.

Project ‘Perfect Posture’ is a unique initiative by Colorss to make lives healthier by creating awareness about good body postures among children. The project aims to make good ergonomics a part of their lifestyle through constant support and education using creative and innovative means.

The necessity for this project was realized when ‘Risachi’, the research wing at Colorss conducted a study in 2012 which shockingly showed a large percentage of school going children suffering from musculoskeletal pains. Further analysis showed that students who complained of musculoskeletal pains demonstrated bad ergonomics. The fact that ergonomics education is not a part of schools nor is it provided at home could make the situation worse.

Project ‘Perfect Posture’ is a programme designed specially keeping in mind the environment with which the children interact on a day to day basis, hence, making it very effective. It has been targeted at children above the age of 10 years with regular sessions planned every month for the entire year.

Extensive efforts are taken to understand the current situation of children and their specific problem areas and the knowledge is used to tailor the programme for them. Each step is performed under the guidance of community physiotherapists. Cognizant of the fact that catching and holding the attention of children is a tough task the sessions have been designed in an unconventional manner making them simple, understandable and enjoyable at the same time.

‘Habits Die Hard’, changing lifestyle is definitely not a one day task which is why the programme stresses on reiterating the learning regularly till it becomes internalized. The benefits are manifold which include - increased efficiency, higher productivity, improved concentration, proper breathing and good digestion being some of the benefits of good ergonomics.

Colorss has always strived for brighter future of children and the project ‘Perfect Posture’ is a big leap in that direction which could take us closer to our vision of a healthy pain free future generation. In our next phase; this project would focus upon the adults.

For Love,

Anand

Colorss Foundation conducts self-defense workshops for working women and school girls

In the country today, we see an unprecedented revolution emerging, a revolution for change in the way in which women security has been seen. There is an increasing concern for the safety of women in the country. And such is the need of the hour. With the increasing attempts on outraging the modesty of women in the country, it is the duty of not only the individual being attacked but every other citizen of the nation to ensure safety of women around them.

We see so many companies today striving to ensure the safety of their women employees. The way in which the corporate world has accepted its’ responsibility towards their female members is commendable. We see people from all walks of life joining hands to support the cause. In going by its’ tradition of supporting any positive wave of change, the Colorss Foundation conducts self-defense workshops for working women. While it is by no means an altogether solution for attacks on women, self-defense training is a great way for women to protect their basic freedom, for example, acting against any violation of their personal space. The learning that a woman may get from such a workshop would allow her to freely roam around the street without being afraid of being groped physically. For a working woman learning this technique would help her in a situation where she has to leave late at night after work or has to travel alone for work..

Besides the physical benefits such as increased body flexibility, better shape, better body control and discipline, such a workshop would also have Psychological benefits such as increased self-awareness, increased confidence, feeling of security, reduced anxiety. Working women are usually burdened with work related pressures and home related pressures, in such a scenario, the least an employer can do is to make them feel safer physically as well as psychologically. And that is precisely why a self-defense workshop is recommended for every company.

Experiences shared by Interns ~ Book collection drive | Colorss Foundation

Learning is an indispensable process in our lives and that learning is an inevitable tool for human development. And when it comes to learning, what’s better than a great, gripping book?

Considering this as the bottom line, Colorss Foundation has organized a book donation drive to amass this rich and resourceful treasure of knowledge with the objective of setting up libraries at their schools in Pune and Baroda. The books can be either in English or in Hindi meant for children ranging from 5th to 10th grade.

Books are conducive in umpteen ways from attaining basic speech skills, boosting logical ability and communication skills to enhanced concentration and discipline. Be it academics, general knowledge, basic skills or hobbies, books aid us in every sphere of our lives. Thus, reading becomes an imperative skill that needs to be inculcated among children at an early age to enhance their quality life.

Unfortunately, not all children are as lucky as to have access to basic amenity as quality education. For this desolate lot, reading good books is a luxury most of them can only dream of. And this is where our role steps in. we and you can make them realize this but the best part is YOU can transform this distant dream into reality for them by just one humble gesture-donating a book!

Collection of books done by our Team - www.colorss.org

Yes, it’s as simple as it sounds! Read the experiences of our volunteers spread across INDIA who are part of this book donation drive.

Suman Mandal - Lucknow

My process of collecting books started from neighbours since I thought it appropriate to ask them before going somewhere else. Since I’m not a resident of Lucknow so, I went up to my friend’s neighbour and explained her about our project that our library project is targeted to collect as many books that can help your organization in providing education to the unprivileged. I told her how much help she will contribute by giving the books. She happily gave her books and helped me.

Jayesh Rathore – Indore

Since the beginning of my internship I was pretty much excited. I was assigned the job to collect books for small children, from class 5th to 10th. With the help of my friends and social media I have been successful to collect 100s of relevant books. The books I collected are mainly story books, English books, children magazines and dictionaries.

I mainly targeted school and college people and also some book shops and convince them that instead of throwing these books we must donate it, so that we can help those under-privileged children those who can’t afford these books.

With the help and guidance from Colorss Foundation, I had this privilege to work for this social cause.

Expecting and hoping to collect more and more books.

Nikhil Venugopal - Bangalore

When I got into Colorss Foundation and was assigned to collect books I had planned that the book manufacturing units around the city is mainly to be targeted on.

And I was very much successful in that for now as I was able to collect 200 odd notebooks in span of 2 weeks. All I did is with the help of my dad, friends and through internet I noted down the bulk book manufacturing industries around my place, and took a print out of the Colorss Foundation brochure and the sheet that was sent to me saying that I work under Colorss.

Coming to convincing part, I was confident about what I spoke and just made them aware of the objective of Colorss Foundation and the importance of books to the children for their education as many couldn't afford books around the country. Luckily for me the people in the manufacturing unit were very much supportive and they were kind enough to provide me 100 books.

Hoping to collect a lot more books in future.

Hope this helps out the needy ones and I am happy to be part of this project as it is for a social cause.

Shikha Gupta - Lucknow

I started collecting books from the people who live nearby and my neighbours as well as my friends. I went up to my friend home and elaborated her about the library project. I told her that your organization’s aim is to provide education to those who can’t afford it and her contribution will help a lot. She happily contributed for the library project.

Junisha Khatri - Lucknow

I approached the donor through my friend who lives in Indira Nagar. I went to my friend’s house who took me to her neighbour. I told her about the foundation and the great cause for which this foundation is working for. She was very delight to hear that and was eager to give books for the underprivileged children. She gave me 3 books but promised me to give me more books in the future.

‘Once you learn to read, you will be free forever’ | Colorss Foundation

67 Years of Independence yet today a large part of our population continues to live in the shackles of illiteracy .Years have passed by but till now an ideal 9% GDP has not been dedicated to the education sector. Right to education ensures free and compulsory education to children between 6- 14 years but what about those below 6 and between 14-18 years

As responsible citizens of this country we cannot wait for things to turn in our favor, in favor of betterment. What we can do is extend our helping hand, spread education and liberate the minds of many by supporting noble causes like the “LIBRARY PROJECT by COLORSS FOUNDATION” 

This Library Project enables you to donate the books you have in excess to someone for whom they may be a necessity .With these books the Foundation plans to set up libraries in few of the government schools and the schools in the villages near Pune and Baroda accessible to all. 

We all do realize the Importance of Education in today’s world both on a personal and professional front .Let us educate ourselves for the happiness and peace of mind so that we know the value of things and not their price. 

The donation drive has started from across India. For more updates check us on Facebook. If you are interested to be a part of this project – write us an email – contact@colorss.org

Sessions on Android based Flag Recognition App

In this increasingly technology driven world it is highly imperative that the kids today get an equal and comfortable opportunity to acquaint themselves to the present day Science scene and are able to make the best of it. Many scientific innovations, in the form of engineered systems and soft-applications, are aimed at providing a better learning experience to the kids. Their use not only promotes a more practical and sturdy education, but also helps the kids develop a sub-conscious ownership of technological ideas. These experiences help them overcome their inhibitions and gain substantial technological exposure so as not to be intimidated by it. Additionally, it helps to nurture their interest in the field by showing them how interesting, fun and accomplishing an outlet Science can be.

Saumya with students 

Our demonstration session on the Android based Flag Recognition Application for 5^th grade students of Ambedkar Memorial High School was an attempt towards achieving the above said. We started with the thing that 5^th graders love the most i.e. drawing. They were each given a drawing sheet and a set of pencil colours/crayons/sketch pens. Next, they were to pick their favourite colour flag and draw it on the sheet. They excitedly drew around 2 to 3 different flags each and were eager to pose with their creations. Once the drawings were done, I got out the android phone with its flag recognition application. We clicked pictures of the flags, cropped them, gave them to the application and got the recognition results as a list of top-10 best matched countries. The students would look at the top-10 options and pick out the country that their flag belonged to.

Students engrossed in drawing the maps

This exercise not only helped them learn about the different countries and flags in a fun way, but also gave them a taste of how a machine can be trained to perform such an activity. The idea is to tickle these young minds and set them thinking. After all, good things start when you begin to think!!
