MSHHH Mynagappally School NSS Unit Visit

Inspiring Compassion, Promoting Inclusion

In a heartwarming gesture of social responsibility, the National Service Scheme (NSS) Unit of MSHHH Mynagappally School recently visited Manovikas Special School, reaffirming their commitment to inclusive community engagement and learning. The visit was part of their continuing efforts to create awareness and empathy among students toward individuals with disabilities, in alignment with the National Trust's vision for inclusive India.

Bridging Gaps Through Interaction

The visiting NSS students were warmly welcomed by the staff and children of Manovikas. They spent the day participating in interactive activities, engaging in cultural exchange, and learning first-hand about the challenges and achievements of children with special needs. The air was filled with laughter, cheers, and mutual respect as both groups came together with open hearts.

The event began with an orientation by the Manovikas team, who introduced the NSS volunteers to the school’s mission, the wide range of support services offered, and the role of education in empowering students with disabilities. The volunteers also got an overview of the therapeutic, vocational, and academic programs offered at the school.

Awareness & Advocacy in Action

As part of the program, the NSS Unit conducted a short session promoting disability rights and inclusion, based on learnings from their own curriculum. They encouraged dialogue among the students, teachers, and parents present, highlighting how every individual—regardless of ability—has the right to dignity, education, and opportunities.

Through personal interactions, NSS students learned about the lived experiences of children at Manovikas. These conversations served as powerful reminders of the strength and resilience that define the differently-abled community.

Fostering Long-Term Impact

The visit wasn’t just about a day of service—it was about planting seeds of lasting change. Many NSS volunteers expressed a renewed sense of purpose and a desire to continue contributing to inclusive causes in the future.

The leadership and faculty of both institutions emphasized the importance of collaborative engagement, where young minds are shaped by compassion, and social service is seen as a way of life.

A Salute to Youth Leadership

Manovikas Special School extends its heartfelt gratitude to the NSS Unit of MSHHH Mynagappally School, its staff, and its students for their proactive role in promoting inclusion, empathy, and awareness. Events like these strengthen the foundation of a society where everyone is valued and supported.
