Mumbai First Proposal for Daan Utsav – 2020

Daan Utsav or Joy of Giving Week happens annually between October 2nd and October 8th every year. It’s also International Day of Elderly on Oct 1st
This year Mumbai First & Adhata Trust would like to come together for Geriatric Care.

Globally, the elderly have been experiencing a difficult time owing to the pandemic. This includes experiences of feeling excluded, tired, lonely, neglect being away from their loved ones, difficulties coping with adaptation to technology, anxiety, depression, etc. The City of Dreams which is otherwise buzzing with activities for people of all age groups seems to have taken a heavy toll on the elderly, quite, unfortunately.

To break away from this rather glum situation and in continuum with the true spirit of Daan Utsav, Mumbai First and Adhata Trust have curated the week of Joy for the elderly. This week would see professionals in the field of mental health, artists, wellness coaches, nutritionists, doctors cover various aspects relevant to the well being of the elderly.

Being inclusive in the best way possible, this is our humble attempt to reach out to the elder citizens to tune into various virtual events during the first week of October. We plan to have a one-hour interactive session at the various Geriatric care centers in the city.

The following is planned by Mumbai First over the span of 7 days:

● One hour session of Conversation
● Improv performance
● Classical Instrumental music
● Theatre/ drama
● Dance/ movement sessions
● Storytelling by artists
● A session with a Doctor
