As the winter chill set in, Yash Sewa Samiti (YSS) launched its heartfelt Winter Campaign – Warm Hugs, under the powerful motto “Ek Kapda, Ek Zindagi”. The campaign aimed to protect the most vulnerable—daily wagers, street dwellers, children, and the elderly—who battle freezing temperatures without the basic comfort of warm clothing. What We Shared: YSS volunteers, with the support of donors and community members, collected, sorted, and distributed: These essentials were delivered directly to families living in slums, on footpaths, and in under-resourced neighborhoods, giving them not just physical warmth, but emotional comfort—a reminder that they are not forgotten. Ek Kapda, Ek Zindagi – One Cloth, One Life This simple but profound campaign message reminded people that one extra piece of clothing from your cupboard can save someone’s life in winter. The spirit of sharing turned into a beautiful movement, with students, housing societies, and local shopkeepers contributing generously. From the Ground “Thand mein koi apna yaad kare, yehi sabse bada tohfa hai. Yeh kapda sirf bacha nahi, pyar ka ahsaas bhi diya,” shared an elderly man from Prajapat Colony. Our Warm Thanks YSS extends sincere gratitude to all who donated, volunteered, and supported the Warm Hugs campaign. Your one warm gesture became someone’s shield against the biting cold. Because warmth isn’t just in the clothes—it’s in the kindness we wrap around others. Let’s keep spreading it, one hug at a time. #WarmHugs #WinterRelief #EkKapdaEkZindagi #YashSewaSamiti #WinterCampaign #SpreadingSmiles #DignityInWinter #DonateWarmth #HopeInCold 27 November, 2020

This Diwali, Yash Sewa Samiti (YSS) celebrated the festival of lights by bringing hope, connectivity, and joy to those who needed it most. While others were lighting diyas in their homes, YSS was lighting up lives—by enabling education, supporting the differently-abled, and ensuring no home was left in darkness or despair. Free Mobile Recharges for Digital Learning Understanding the challenges faced by children of domestic workers in attending online classes due to lack of internet access, YSS provided free mobile phone recharges as a Diwali bonus.This simple but crucial step allowed several children to continue their education uninterrupted, reconnect with their schools, and stay motivated. A New Phone for Nita Ji In a special moment of compassion, Nita Ji, a senior citizen and differently-abled woman, received a new mobile phone from YSS. This gift ensured she could stay connected with loved ones, access support services, and experience digital inclusion—perhaps for the first time.  Diwali Hampers for Families To spread festive warmth, families were also given: A Festival with Heart “Humare bachchon ko recharge mil gaya, toh padhai phir se shuru ho gayi… aur Nita aunty ki muskaan ne toh sabka Diwali roshan kar diya,” shared one volunteer. Our Gratitude We thank all our donors, well-wishers, and volunteers who made this Diwali a celebration of inclusion, education, and empathy. At Yash Sewa Samiti, we believe Diwali is not just about lighting lamps—but lighting lives. Through small acts of kindness, we created big waves of change. #DiwaliWithDignity #DigitalSupport #EducationForAll #NewPhoneNewHope #YashSewaSamiti #SpreadingSmiles #FestivalOfGiving #Diwali2020 17 November, 2020

On 27th October 2020, Yash Sewa Samiti (YSS) organized a multi-purpose distribution drive to support underprivileged children and women with essential supplies for education, health, hygiene, and nutrition. In a single impactful event, ration kits, stationery kits, hygiene kits, and Bournvita nutrition packs were distributed to bring relief and empowerment to deserving families in our supported communities. What Was Distributed:  Ration Kits (for families):  Stationery Kits (for children): These were given to help children continue their education, especially when schools were closed and resources were scarce.  Hygiene Kits (especially for women and girls): These kits aimed to promote personal hygiene and menstrual health for women and young girls who often lack access to these essentials.  Bournvita Nutrition Packs (for children): Each child received a Bournvita health drink pack, supporting immunity and energy needs during this critical period of growth. Heartfelt Reactions “Bachchon ko stationery milna aur mahilao ke liye sanitary pads ka milna, dono zaroori tha. Bournvita milna toh unke liye khushi ka bonus ban gaya!” shared a smiling mother. A Collective Effort This initiative was made possible through the dedicated efforts of YSS volunteers and kind donors, who believe that no family should lack the basics for survival, growth, and dignity. By addressing multiple needs—education, hygiene, nutrition, and food—Yash Sewa Samiti strives to build a healthier, more empowered future for every child and woman we reach. #RationRelief #StationeryDistribution #HygieneForHer #BournvitaForKids #YashSewaSamiti #EmpoweringCommunities #SpreadingSmiles #WomenAndChildWelfare #OctoberReliefDrive 27 Oct., 2020

On the occasion of Poshan Maah, a national campaign focused on improving nutrition and health awareness, Yash Sewa Samiti (YSS) conducted a special awareness session and meeting for women on 10th September, 2020. The session focused on two key areas: nutritional awareness and the formation of Self-Help Groups (SHGs)—both crucial for empowering women and strengthening families.  Milk Distribution for Nutritional Support As part of our commitment to practical support along with awareness, milk packets were distributed to all women attendees, reinforcing the message of nutritional care for themselves and their children. This small but significant gesture symbolized the importance of including protein-rich foods in daily diets. Nutrition Awareness – Poshan for a Healthier Tomorrow The meeting educated women on: SHG Formation – A Step Towards Financial Freedom In the second half, an interactive session was held on the formation of Self-Help Groups (SHGs), where women learned: The idea of women supporting one another financially and socially was met with enthusiasm, and several participants showed interest in forming SHGs in their areas. Community Voices “Nutrition aur kamai dono ki baat hui… doodh mila, jaankari mili, aur himmat bhi mili kuch naya karne ki,” shared one woman from Nandram Park. Gratitude YSS extends heartfelt thanks to the volunteers and supporters who made this event meaningful, nourishing both bodies and minds. Because true empowerment begins with awareness, nourishment, and unity—and when women rise, families and communities rise with them. #PoshanMaah2020 #WomenEmpowerment #SHGFormation #NutritionAwareness #MilkDistribution #YashSewaSamiti #SpreadingSmiles #HealthyWomenHealthyIndia #PoshanForAll 10 September, 2020

Impact Story: Dignity in Every Distribution – YSS’s Commitment to Women’s Hygiene On 3rd September 2020, Yash Sewa Samiti (YSS) marked its Annual Day in a way that truly reflected its values—spreading joy, care, and dignity in the community. Instead of large gatherings, the celebration reached people right where they were, keeping safety in mind during the pandemic. During the challenging months of the pandemic, Yash Sewa Samiti (YSS) recognized a crucial truth—health and dignity go hand in hand, especially for women and girls from underprivileged backgrounds. What started as a small step on our Annual Day, 3rd September 2020—distributing sanitary napkins in Bindapur village alongside joy-filled moments for children—soon grew into a dedicated effort spanning multiple locations and groups. Step 1 – Annual Day, Bindapur Village This moment sparked something bigger. Step 2 – Bindapur Pocket 4 & Tilak Nagar Outreach Weeks later, YSS carried forward the initiative to: The Impact Because real empowerment is not just about grand gestures—it’s about making sure no woman has to compromise her health or dignity, no matter the circumstances. #WomenEmpowerment #HygieneForAll #DignityDrive #YashSewaSamiti #PandemicRelief #Bindapur #TilakNagar 3 Sep, 2020 onwards
