The following is a letter from Rani Patel, founder and director of Aarohan:
Season's Greetings!
As you must be aware, Diwali is a time of great celebration and festivity all over the country. It is a festival that celebrates the victory of good over evil. Diwali is celebrated with great enthusiasm at Aarohan as well. We put up Diwali stalls comprised of traditional Diwali products like diyas, wall hangings and paintings that were prepared by the staff and teachers along with the students. The stalls were a big success and Aarohan products were in great demand.
A day before Diwali, the staff members and teachers burst crackers along with the children who thoroughly enjoyed themselves. Sweets, food and gifts were distributed among the students on this auspicious day.
It is a matter of pride for us that the students are performing exceedingly well in academics and co curricular activities. None of this would have been possible without your kind support.
It was heartening to see the stationery (from the "Pencils for Pupils" drive) that you sent for Aarohan through Veena Deepak and her husband. It was touching that they took so much pains to deliver the stationery to Aarohan in two slots. Taking the privilege of the freedom you have always given us, we distributed a part of the stationery in Jaipur to disabled and mentally challenged children. The rest of it will be distributed to Aarohan students on 14th November which is celebrated as Children's Day in India and during Aarohan's Christmas celebrations next month.
I wish that you would come to Aarohan soon so that the kids and all of us can see who is behind Aarohan's success. Till then, I can only convey many thanks to you on behalf of all the children and the Aarohan team for the strength that you give us at every step.
Hoping to hear from you soon.
Thanks.
Rani Patel
Season's Greetings!
Hopefully all is well at your end. I have been out of town for the fortnight as I was in Jaipur. I am delighted to share with you that Mr. Shashi Sahai's Photo Exhibition in Jaipur, the proceeds of which will be utilized towards the welfare of Aarohan students, was a great success. We were able to create awareness about our cause and the photographs themselves garnered a lot of appreciation from one and all.

I cannot express my gratitude for the kindness that you show us in every way. You have given us a free field to utilize the funds in the best and most immediate interests of the children. This makes our work more efficient and productive.
