Chabad Mumbai Brings Volunteers and Joyous Murals to GPM's Nursery School


It is with a great deal of gratitude that GPM acknowledges the fantastic work of Chabad Mumbai and their teen volunteers who joined GPM for a day of volunteering in the Kalwa slums. Chabad volunteers joined us to bring light, joy, and color to our nursery school classroom.  Chabad's CTeen group under the guidance of Mushky and R. Uri Blau created a beautiful mural which will surround the pre-school children in the Joshua Jacob Greenberger Learning Center(JLC) every day.

Each week, the JLC is home to 9 classes from nursery (pre-school) to 8th grade. Not only do the children attending the JLC receive the education that they need to end the cycle of poverty, but they also receive warm, nutritious meals that keep their minds and bodies healthy and strong. The GPM solution of providing meals for children in school addresses both short-term and long-term needs of the children. The immediate need of hunger relief is achieved, malnutrition is abated, and a sound education is established to help promote a better life for children of the slums. 

We extend much thanks to Mushky and R. Uri Blau as well as the directors of Chabad Mumbai, Chaya and R. Israel Kozlovsky.

GPM prioritizes creating a warm environment that is fun and educational, and volunteers such as Chabad Mumbai help us to keep the center vibrant for the children!
