Today we travelled to a large high school where the Canadian team and
our Rotary partners were assisted by a large number of grade 11 students
from the host school. Together we delivered another 591 bedkits to
impoverished and special needs children from the area surrounding Avadi.
Tomorrow we head west by train to our next distribution.

Afterwards
we were treated to a ten minute Hindu meditation chant by 45 young boys
who, from age 5, have been taking training to be Hindu Brahmin priests.
In return they are given free education.
Next
we travelled to a factory where all of the bedkits are assembled and
packaged for shipment to the various distribution sites.
Finally
we visited the Rotary Hospital of Ambattur where we toured the hospital
and witnessed several patients undergoing therapy for cerebral palsy,
eye surgery, and emergency medical treatments. Our Rotary partners fund
this hospital as one of their many charitable ventures. They are very
dedicated and busy people.
