A spirited ‘Thank you’ to everyone for making this year’s Family Fun Fair a success!
Just six days ago on Sunday 13 August, the community came together at Nalanda Family Fun Fair 2023 for a joyous day to offer their service, support and encouragement for education. In the cool of dawn, volunteers already started arriving at Nalanda Centre and were joined by stall operators in the early morning, who worked happily together to prepare to welcome family, friends and visitors for this long-awaited event.
Nalanda Dhamma Schools and Free School also set up stall after weeks of preparations, with much gratitude to the public for their support. On this wholesome occasion, everyone had the opportunity to witness and rejoice during the roll-out of special programmes such as the donation of medical equipment to needy individuals and several welfare centres, as well as the hosting of children and elderly from charitable homes.
