One fine day by Uppasana Baruah

By Volunteer Uppasana Baruah, FHI Guwahati

Right since the first few days in college, I was so much looking forward to volunteering. I searched online for organisations taking in volunteers and even asked friends if they knew anything about such a thing. Fortunately during the second year in my college, one of my friends let me know about Fly Higher India – FHI, a non-profit organization working for children to instil life skills in them. I couldn’t wait a minute to ask her about the details to join in as a volunteer.

After applying for as a volunteer, I along with the other volunteers were informed about the date for our first event. We were supposed to go to ‘Jyoti Snehalaya’, a children’s home in Guwahati. I was more than excited to meet the children and interact. It was 17th of November, 2019 at around 10:00 A.M when we reached the venue.

I feel proud to be a member of Fly Higher India. I am frantically waiting for the next event and looking forward to meeting amazing children in the future and growing and evolving with them.
