“Love only grows by sharing. You can only have more for yourself by giving it away to others”
Brian Tracy.
In the times that we live in today, when the concept of ‘I’ ‘me’ ‘myself’ seems to be the new age mantra; the art of sharing is one of the greatest lessons that we as parents can impart to our children. I am honored to feature on my blog, this wonderful initiative called ‘Johnson’s baby share the language of love’. Johnson and Johnson, which is synonymous with quality baby care products across the globe, has partnered with the well known NGO Goonj to share this language of love with less fortunate children across the country.
What the campaign stands for:
In keeping with Johnson’s core philosophy of “care”, this campaign aims create a forum for the less fortunate children in our society, to experience “the joys of childhood”. Working hand in hand with Goonj who shares the same philosophy, this campaign encourages mothers’ to share their child’s old or unused articles with those less fortunate.
What happens once you contribute?
Once the drop boxes at various
centers in the city are filled up for the day, they are taken to the Goonj
collection centers where they are cleaned sorted and pressed. They are then
transported to the nearest Goonj centers and distributed among the needy.
How you can make a difference
