World Breast Feeding Awareness Week Aug 1-Aug 7 2014- Joining hands with ICH and Academy of Peadiatrics Egmore, Chennai on 1 Aug 2014

Technically, August 1st happens to be our Charter Day.  The Day our club came into existence 52 years ago with an aim of friendship and service to the society.  What day can be best to start the year's personalized projects than today.  

We are very happy to have started our first outdoor project - by providing awareness talk, nutrition supplements to nursing mothers of Government Institute of Child Health, Egmore, Chennai and also giving away prizes to mothers whose babies are healthy and on road to recovery due to breast feeding and care from mothers.   

The objective was small and clear-  to make this day special.  However, God has been kind enough to make us part of the larger campaign where we got to meet 70+ upcoming doctors and serve 40 nursing mothers, along with a panel of speakers from ICH and Academy of Pediatrics.   Coverage in new media by Jaya Tv and Thanthi television was just a bonus.  The cause of spreading the goodness of breast feeding is done in the small way possible to us.  As mothers, what else can we will proud of.  As Inner Wheel Members,  we are only glad and blessed that society gives us opportunities to serve and give back our share of possibilities to our community.
