Celebrating Creativity, Culture & Compassion

Ganesh Chaturthi is a time of joy, hope, and new beginnings. But for children living in Child Care Institutions (CCIs), festivals often pass without celebration. With Best Bappa of the Year, we bring that festive spirit alive — by empowering children to create their own eco-friendly Ganesha idols and feel truly part of the celebration.

This initiative isn’t just about art — it’s about building confidence, expression, and community. It’s a powerful blend of capacity building and festive joy.

"For many children in CCIs, this is their first experience of being recognized for their creativity and effort."

Our Workshops Make a Difference

Children from CCIs take part in workshops where they learn how to sculpt, collaborate, and present their creations. Along the way, they develop key life skills from focus and patience to teamwork and creativity.

With your support, we provide them with mentorship, and a platform to showcase their talent. For many, it’s their first time being recognized for their effort.
