Glimpses from the amazing musical evening
The Corona times are still looming over, but for mental health, it is of utmost importance to the keep away the gloom. At SOS village Multan, significant efforts are made by Mahnaz Fareed and her team to keep the children raised there, mentally healthy and happily connected with the world.
For the purpose, whenever is the chance, different events, like carnivals, fairs, musical evenings are arranged and people are invited over to spend time with them.
In the month of March, Corona restrictions were relaxed and activities were allowed by the government. Following SOPs, on the Ides of March, a beautiful musical evening was arranged to celebrate the birthday of SOS children born in the month.
The sitting arrangements were done in the open air, in the lush Green lawns, surrounded by the majestic, lofty trees, in the remarkable piece of architecture that the building of SOS village Multan is.
There was hi-tea for the guests and the event started with the cake cutting ceremony for the birthday children. Each birthday child had his/her own cake to cut. Mahnaz Fareed announced their names, wished them well and made entire SOS village and all the friends of SOS village, sing, happy birthday song for them.
Remember folks! Mahnaz has an amazing role in the lives of all these children, she is a mother to them all. Most of them arrived here, when they were toddlers, but it was her vision and devotion, alongwith her team, which shaped their personalities and also remains truly committed to developing their paths to successful careers, not just ordinary, but the best in life, that can be.
Hania Shahid, the treasurer and organizer of 'friends of SOS committee' also addressed the gathering and admired the efforts and generosity of the hostesses and of the friends of SOS present at the occasion.
Sir Kamran is the incharge of the ' SOS Youth house', alongwith being member of administration at 'SOS Herman Gmeiner school' and SOS village Multan. He welcomed the guests and thanked them for their presence and went on to invite the star of the evening, the musical band, Z.Xs.
Seasoned entertainers that they are, when they arrived on the stage, there was not a dull moment. Mr. Younas Khan and Mr. Kashif, had a song for everyone. They invited children of SOS on the stage, who amazed the audience with cartwheel tricks, break dance, bhangra and other dance steps.
The swag, the energy, the enthusiasm of SOS children, sure spoke for the congenial atmosphere provided at premises of SOS Multan. It was evident, they are indeed nurtured with care and with love. Their latent talents are explored, brought out and polished to shine in the world.
They were all dressed beautifully, their eyes full of spark for a bright future, brimming with self assurance that their existence mattered and this beautiful event, at their own village, was enough of a proof of it.
