September 6, 2024 at 4:26 PMCancelledDiwali Celebration Volunteering EventAPAMSA09/06/202410/21/2024Background information: Diwali, or Dipawali, is India's biggest and most important holiday of the year. The festival gets its name from the row (avali) of clay lamps (deepa) that Indians light outside their homes to symbolize the inner light that protects from spiritual darkness. This festival is as important to Hindus as the Christmas holiday is to Christians. It is celebrated over 5 days with events ranging from decorating homes, feasting, fireworks, and gifts. In celebration of Diwali, APAMSA is requesting to host a volunteer event in collaboration with the Mentoring Club. At this volunteer event, volunteers from both APAMSA and the Mentoring Club will organize and execute several activities for the children at the Erie Kids Club. The event aims to introduce the children to the rich cultural traditions of Diwali through various engaging activities. The activities for the children will be Henna art where volunteers will apply traditional Henna to the children's hands, Rangoli art where children will be guided by volunteers to decorate the blacktop with chalk to make traditional Rangoli patterns, and paper lantern crafting where volunteers will assist children in making decorative paper lanterns. APAMSA will provide all necessary supplies for this event. APAMSA and Mentoring Club volunteers will be responsible for set up and clean up at the Kids Club. A permission slip will be distributed to the children ahead of time, ensuring that parents are informed and consent to their child's participation in the activities. All participants will undergo a background check beforehand using the following links: https://epatch.pa.gov/home and https://www.compass.state.pa.us/CWIS/Public/Home No child will be left alone with a volunteer.

We are requesting permission to only use the 7 tables that are located on the far left of the cafeteria.

Crafts & Cocoa Night is intended to provide students with a relaxed and welcoming environment to decompress, connect with peers, and engage in creative activities such as coloring, general arts and crafts, and a decorate-your-Anki-remote station, where students may create a keychain or personalize their Anki remote. As this event takes place during the first week back from winter break, it offers students an intentional opportunity to reset and manage stress as they transition back into the academic demands of a new semester.
