“A society grows great when the old plant trees in whose shade they shall never sit.”
— Greek Proverb
On 10th August, 2024 we saw this proverb come to life when the EY team embarked on a journey with the young minds at Udbhav Schools. Guiding them, mentoring them and demystifying the world for them one step at a time.
Mstr. Tejpratap Gupta and Ms. Ayesha Mamoon, welcomed the EY team and requested them to light the lamp. After this, they shared their experience at Udbhav Schools and their ambitions.
The primary school children then performed a small dance after which Mr. Viiveck Verma was called to the podium to welcome the partners.
13 members from the senior leadership along with their families interacted with 40 children from the Udbhav Schools, where they mentored the kids, conducted a SWOT analysis which helped the children understand themselves better and helped light the flame to their ambitions.
After the mentoring session, the partners met for a short debrief and shared their experiences with their peers. A note of thanks was delivered by Mr. Sreeharsha Gaddala, Trustee from the IIMA Alumni Association (Hyd) Charitable Trust to the EY team, students and teachers for organising such a wonderful event. Mr. Gaddala presented a token of thanks to Mr. Jayesh Sanghvi managing partner of EY.
The students teachers and partners then went for lunch and concluded the event by painting and adding colour back to the walls of the school.
Sounds like a wonderful event, mentoring kids from a young age. Thank you for keeping up the spirits of the youth!
