Diwali Joy: Sweets & Candles for Slum Communities
This Diwali, let's light up lives by distributing sweets and candles across various slum areas in New Delhi & NCR. Volunteers brought smiles to underprivileged children and families with festive sweets, candles, and diyas.

Illuminating Lives During the Festival of Lights

The festival of lights, Diwali, is a time of joy, celebration, and togetherness. This year, PlanCare Foundation embarked on a heartwarming initiative to bring light and joy to families living in slum areas, ensuring that every home could celebrate the festival with warmth and brightness.
Our Mission
“Every candle lit is a step toward hope and happiness.”
Our mission was clear: to ensure that no family was left in the dark during Diwali. We aimed to distribute thousands of candles and diyas to slum areas, providing a source of light and hope to those who need it most. These simple yet powerful gestures transformed the atmosphere in these communities, bringing a sense of festivity and joy to their homes.
Festive Treats for Children
Children are the future, and their happiness is our priority. Along with candles and diyas, we distributed sweets, chocolates, and festive treats to the children in these communities. We wanted to ensure that they could fully enjoy the celebrations with the same excitement and joy as their peers. By providing these small tokens of happiness, we hoped to create lasting memories and a sense of belonging for these young souls.
Community Engagement
This initiative was not just about distributing items; it was about building connections and fostering a sense of community. Our dedicated volunteers worked closely with local leaders and organizations to identify the most vulnerable families and ensure that our aid reached them. We believe in the power of collective action and are committed to working hand-in-hand with the communities we serve.
