FOCC's "DNV CRYcket - 2010"
On 26-March '10, the Ahmadi sports grounds wore a festive look. Children and adults sporting colorful dresses, displaying tremendous excitement and spirit of friendship in greetings and participation were seen all over the place to participate in the annual cricket tournament christened as "DNV CRYcket-2010" organized by Friends of CRY Club - Kuwait (FOCC-Kuwait). DNV-Kuwait branch were the main sponsor of this year's event and co-sponsored by Payal Jewelers' and Lambwestern Co. For the first time a Souvenir was released commemorating the 12 glorious years of FOCC's activities.
A motivating message from H.E. The Ambassador of India to Kuwait, Mr. Ajai Malhotra and a message from Chief Executive of CRY-India, Ms. Puja Marwaha were the highlights, beside insights on Brain Bang mission and a brief on our supported project Manav Ashrita Sansthan (MAS). A unique drive for "Associate Membership" was also introduced in 2009 where anyone from the society could sign-up and feel attached to the FOCC & CRY mission. One of the highest number of children's' teams participated this year - ten Senior children and eleven Junior children teams - vying with each other for top honors consisting of a glittering rolling "CRYcket" trophy in each category. Additionally there was the KIDS corner where one could see children and adults participating in a spirit of friendship in the exciting games. The drawing competition and essay competitions where in both children and adults participants showed their drawing and writing skills. There was the Buy for CRY stall where articles donated by good Samaritans through FOCC's efforts could be picked up almost for a song. The Telugu Kala Samithi (TKS) put up a canteen for tasty food items. It was pure fun and everything done at the event was for a noble cause - to help the underprivileged children in India in our own humble way. H.E.
The Ambassador of India in Kuwait, Mr. Ajai Malhotra graced the occasion despite his busy schedule and lauded the efforts of FOCC for its activities and doing its bit for the underprivileged children rights in India. He enjoyed the final matches of both the junior and the senior teams, officially released the "Souvenir" and presented the winners and the runner-up team Captains with the trophies to a thunderous applause from the parents and cricket lovers. Our special thanks to him. Mr. H.S. Gandhi, Country Manager (Kuwait) of DNV-Kuwait, who were the event sponsors, in his short speech congratulated the children and the organizers and expressed his continued support towards FOCC. Medals and certificates to all participants of CRYcket 2010 were given by Mr. Gandhi as well as Mr. Jamal A. Chaaraoui & Mrs. Oussama Daher of Quality Light & Heavy Eqpt. Co.
