Both Harvinder and Preet remain deeply committed to passing on our lifelong learnings, experiences, and values to the DhunAnand Foundation. It gives us immense satisfaction to stand shoulder to shoulder in support of its Founder, Shivpreet Singh, whose vision of blending spirituality, education, arts, and humanitarian service continues to inspire young minds and communities alike all over the world.
It was a very cordial and meaningful dinner meeting at Swagat Restaurant, situated about 3 miles from our Government High School Badbar, Barnala. The meeting was attended by senior teachers Shri Rishi Kumar Sharma Ji and Shri Avinash Kumar Ji, both of whom have been strong pillars and ambassadors of the DhunAnand Foundation’s activities in the village.

Their families also participated in the dinner, making the evening warm and family-oriented. During our discussions, it was decided that the recently improved logos of the DhunAnand Foundation would now be printed on T-shirts and distributed among volunteers and workers so that awareness about the Foundation’s activities spreads further among the local people.

I was pleasantly surprised to learn that even Sarpanch Shri Jagji Singh (Jagga) Ji of the village was fully aware of the Foundation’s humanitarian work, particularly our efforts during the flood period when monthly ration and food supplies were distributed to poor and needy families of the village. Though our contribution may appear small, it is certainly a sincere step towards serving humanity and supporting those who quietly help society progress.
The ladies wing of the Foundation has worked hard to help students to gain confidence in languages and showing brilliant results. Mrs Rishi KumarShrma took a leading part in getting the results in English, while Mrs Avnish has been promoting Punjabi Language.
I express my heartfelt thanks to Rishi Kumar Ji and Avinash Kumar Ji for arranging this wonderful meeting and for their continuous dedication to the welfare activities of the Foundation.

We also discussed the future plans of the Foundation. One important proposal suggested by Sh Avnish Kumar ji was to organize educational field trips exclusively on the line of two undertaken last year for students, so that budding young minds may learn not only from classrooms but also from the environment, historical places, and important monuments around them. Such exposure can play a major role in broadening their vision and confidence.
The participation of young kids enthused charm in the meeting. The youngest in the meeting is a budding athlete.
It is important to note that our English Language Training Program proved to be a remarkable success. Four to five students scored above 90% marks, and there has been a visible improvement in their confidence, spoken English, and overall learning standards. Seeing rural students grow with such enthusiasm gives us immense satisfaction and renewed energy to continue this mission. It gives us immense satisfaction to stand shoulder to shoulder in support of its Founder, Shivpreet Singh, whose vision of blending spirituality, education, arts, and humanitarian service continues to inspire young minds and communities alike.
At this stage of our lives, we feel that the greatest wealth one can leave behind is not material possessions, but wisdom, compassion, encouragement, and a spirit of selfless service. Through the Foundation’s activities, we see a meaningful path to share these experiences with the younger generation and contribute, in our own humble way, towards building a more aware, educated, and compassionate society.
With gratitude to all teachers, volunteers, parents, and students who made this effort meaningful.
