CLC Outreach

Growing in Empathy




On their very first Outreach for the academic year, on 29th June, 2019, CLC boys were filled with concerns, questions and a lot of excitement. They were on their way to Jeevarathini - Home for abandoned children, at Nallur Village, Hosur Road. They were welcomed with enthusiasm.

The grounds of the Home were laden with fruit. The SJBHS boys helped to pluck the harvest while enjoying the fruits of their labour. They helped to plant a few saplings, cleaned the gardens and folded a few clothes. There were a number of games organized by the staff wherein the children bonded with each other. The bonding continued during the sumptuous fellowship lunch. The Josephites were a contented lot as they said their goodbyes.

The CLC Outreach programme is meant for students to engage and understand how the less fortunate live. Jesuit education must equip them to regard the lost, the least and the last as brothers to whom they owe their service, and CLC trips aim to do just that.
