MUMBAI (India CSR): Five years of Hearing Hearts were celebrated with laughter, creativity and plenty of smiles as 55 children with hearing impairment came together for a special Tissue Texture Art Activity.
The celebration, held on World Humanitarian Day, brought a simple message to the forefront: celebrations become more special when they are shared with others. The children enthusiastically participated in the Tissue Texture Art Activity, using tissue paper, colours and adhesive to create textured artwork. They explored different textures, experimented with colours and shapes, and brought their imagination to life through their creations.

The activity gave the children an opportunity to express themselves creatively while enjoying an engaging, hands-on experience. For nearly two and a half hours, the children remained engrossed in creating their artwork, making the celebration a joyful and meaningful experience.
For Devangi Dalal, Humanitarian and National Awardee and the founder of Hearing Hearts, having the children at the centre of the anniversary celebration made the occasion particularly special.
“Five years of Hearing Hearts is not just about completing five years. It is about the people who have trusted us, the families we have stood beside and the many children whose lives we have been fortunate to touch. Celebrating this day with 55 children, seeing their excitement and watching them enjoy themselves was truly heartwarming,” said Dalal.

The anniversary also reflected the larger work undertaken by Hearing Hearts towards supporting people with hearing and communication needs. Over the years, the organisation has worked with individuals and families to help them navigate their hearing journeys and communicate with greater confidence.
The choice to celebrate the anniversary alongside World Humanitarian Day added another dimension to the occasion for Dalal, who has been recognised for her humanitarian work. For her, humanitarianism is not limited to a single day or an award, but is reflected in everyday efforts to make people feel heard, supported and included. She also believes that “The world will aspire to the beauty of kindness if we make specially-abled children equally inclusive in our society.”
The morning ended with happy faces and colourful tissue texture artworks created by the young participants, a fitting way for Hearing Hearts to celebrate five years of work while looking ahead to the years to come.
