What Our Toybankers Have To Say
Empowering children through the power of play
Jayshankar E
Senior Manager - Programme Delivery and Outreach“Play is essential of all. For children the necessity is manifold. A lot of learning, development, and well-being happens through play. But many children from poor economic conditions are not getting the required access to play. Toybank's work tries to reduce this disparity.”
Pratik Yashwant Shivgan
Executive - Office Administration“Toybank baccho ka khel ke duvara mansik vikas karta hai, bacche bade hokar khud ke pairon par khade ho sake.”
Pooja Saiya
Asst. Manager- Volunteer Action“Play to me is active, it's when a child is actively engaged in something physically and/or mentally. It can be structured, it can be free play, it has to be fun and spark joy for the player.”
