In an effort to bring smiles on the face of children in shelter home UNITED SIKHS organized a picnic party for 100 evacuees last Sunday at the Allen Chapel shelter home. “It was very much needed to have a picnic party outside the shelter home where all adults, kids and volunteer can have little fun leaving two weeks of depression behind” said UNITED SIKHS volunteer Tej Singh Kaur from Palo Alto, California.
