Christmas celebrations are just around the corner and one can already feel the buzz and the excitement in anticipation of the celebrations. The festivities bring the people closer and is the ideal occasion to show the love and affection for your loved ones. People buy all kinds of sweets, chocolates, cakes and gifts for their loved ones.
While everyone is in his/her own festive mood for celebration, Fropper.com, India’s first social networking website, has taken the onus and thought of becoming a Santa for the underprivileged children in association with the NGO Toybank. Over 3 million members of Fropper.com will come forward and donate toys – old or new for the underprivileged, which will then be distributed among the kids in slums,municipal schools, hospitals& street kids.Fropper.com members just need to fill a form on the site & the Toybank team will then get in touch with them to facilitate the rest.
Continuing with its efforts to promote social networking for a social cause is the thought behind this initiative in association with Toybank. With the support of over 3 million of its members, Fropper.com hopes to bring a smile to the faces of thousands of underpriviledged children and make them feel like a part of the Christmas celebrations.
Toybank is a non-profit organization which has a strong belief that every child, irrespective of his social & financial background has the right to make the most of his/her childhood. While accessibility to a decent education is of prime importance, one should not overlook how important a role can indulgence in extra-curricular activities help in shaping/moulding the lives of these children as and when they grow to evolve as strong, responsible individuals. After all, these are the very same children who will represent the face of a better globe, a responsible globe. Toybank dreams to place a toy in the hands of every poor child of India. A toy shapes the psyche of the children, so utmost care is taken to give only unbiased and morally correct toys to children.
