On August 22, 2024, Don Bosco Migrant Services actively participated in the MakkaludanMudalvar Camp held at MambakkamPanchayat. This camp, aimed at fostering community engagement and providing essential services to local residents, offered a unique opportunity for our organization to extend our support through volunteer efforts. Our participation not only provided valuable hands-on experience for our team but also allowed us to strengthen our ties with the local community.

Volunteer Service and Training

As part of our ongoing commitment to community development, a team from Don Bosco Migrant Services volunteered at the MakkaludanMudalvar Camp. Our volunteers were strategically placed to assist in various activities, including helping residents with documentation, guiding them through the different service counters, and providing information on available government schemes and services. This experience was an integral part of our team’s training, enhancing their skills in community service, public engagement, and operational coordination.

In addition to offering volunteer support, we also registered our services at the help desk. This initiative ensured that our presence was formally recognized and that the community could easily access our support in the future. The registration at the help desk served as a gateway for the residents to connect with us for any assistance they might need, particularly in areas such as migrant support, legal aid, and social services.

Community Impact and Appreciation

The involvement of Don Bosco Migrant Services was met with great appreciation from the local community and the MambakkamPanchayat officials. Mr.Venkatesan, the Panchayat President, expressed his heartfelt gratitude for the dedication and efficiency displayed by our volunteers. He commended the team for their proactive approach and their ability to seamlessly integrate into the camp’s operations, thereby contributing to the overall success of the event.

The participation of Don Bosco Migrant Services in the MakkaludanMudalvar Camp was a resounding success, highlighting our commitment to community engagement and service. Our volunteers not only gained valuable experience but also made a significant positive impact on the local community. The appreciation from Mr.Venkatesan and the residents of MambakkamPanchayat reaffirmed the importance of our work and encouraged us to continue our efforts in supporting and empowering communities. This event marked another milestone in our journey toward creating sustainable change and fostering strong, supportive networks within the communities we serve.
