Students to ‘Paint Happiness’ in the lives of

orphan children

Maya Academy of Advanced Cinematics (MAAC) – leader in 3D Animation and VFX training with the support of its students’ community kick started its first social campaign named ‘Paint Happiness’ on April 22, 2013. It’s a three day long activity where MAAC students from its various centres would paint and beautify the walls of 7 orphanages across Mumbai, Thane and Navi Mumbai.

The prime objective of this noble cause is to bring smiles on the faces of the orphan kids, spread happiness and inculcate social values among students to initiate small steps towards their first socially responsible activity at this young age. Through this social cause, the students get an opportunity to showcase their creativity in the form of paintings and create a better atmosphere for the not so privileged children. Various fun activities such as indoor games, watching favourite cartoon films, learning basic drawing skills and painting would be organized for the children throughout the campaign. 

MAAC students from Thane, Mulund, Powai, Vashi, Dadar & Borivali, Andheri and Malad centres will participate and paint walls of the selected orphanages like Janani Ashish (Dombivali), Vatsalya Trust (Kanjurmarg), Balanand orphanage (Chembur), Girija Balgruha orphanage (Kharghar), Ashray (Bandra West), St. Catherine’s Home (Andheri West) and Thomas Shelter (Kandivali West) respectively.

Ms. Bhavika Chouhan, Sr. VP – Marketing said, “We wish to serve the society in our own little way. Painting is a wonderful gesture to express one’s love and care. Through ‘Paint Happiness’ we intend to involve our students in the noble cause and fill the hearts of orphan children with joy.”

At the commencement of the activity, Mr. Ram Warrier, Business Head, MAAC said,” We believe the best way to make someone feel special is giving them your valuable time and sharing their joys and sorrows. We hope this brings a feeling of brotherhood and binds the children and students with laughter and joy.”
