Bringing a smile on the face of alll was the intention behind the

100 Santa project

Reclamation, Kalina,

Mankhurd

and Dharavi. Glimpses of the kids enjoying their gifts, singing Christmas carols and playing games made it evident how thoughtful the idea was to make this Christmas Special.

Sumit Singh Gandhi

who initiated the 100 Santa Project, "We are associated with the

Sounds of Silence

which helps hearing impaired people and they were eager to give back to the society, so we decided to do this with them. They were happy to turn Santa for a day and wish to do this again next year. We also had like-minded individuals come together with a purpose, which was to be a Santa for a day."
