As part of the 20 Years Celebration of Don Bosco Tech Society, DB Tech – Thakurmunda organized a Community Health & Awareness Outreach Programme at Baunshadiha village. The initiative aimed to promote healthy living practices and create awareness about DB Tech’s skill development programmes among community members, especially women SHG groups and local youth.

The programme was conducted by DB Tech – Thakurmunda trainers and students, who actively engaged with the community and shared key messages on health, skill training, and livelihood opportunities. The activity aligned with the DB Tech @ 20 objective of strengthening community connect and positioning DB Tech as a youth- and community-focused skilling institution.

The programme focused on spreading the message “Health is Wealth” through practical demonstrations. Awareness was created about DB Tech programmes, available job roles, and placement support. SHG members, local youth, and the surrounding community were engaged as part of the DB Tech @ 20 celebrations. Community members were encouraged to adopt healthy habits such as yoga and regular exercise in their daily lives. A practical demonstration of basic yoga asanas was conducted for the community.

An interactive awareness session focused on the role of DB Tech in skill development and youth empowerment, training trades and job opportunities available at DB Tech – Thakurmunda, placement assistance and alumni success stories, and the importance of physical fitness for productivity and livelihood sustainability.

Trainers demonstrated simple and effective yoga asanas that can be easily practiced at home. Community members actively participated and were encouraged to adopt these practices to maintain physical and mental well-being in their daily lives.

The programme resulted in increased awareness among SHG members and villagers about health and wellness, improved understanding of DB Tech’s skill training and placement initiatives, motivation among local youth and women to enroll in skill development programmes, strengthened relationships between DB Tech – Thakurmunda and the surrounding community, and positive community participation as part of the DB Tech @ 20 celebrations.

The Community Health & Awareness Outreach Programme at Baunshadiha village was a meaningful initiative that successfully combined health awareness, yoga practice, and skill development outreach. The active involvement of trainers and trainees/alumni reflected the spirit of DB Tech @ 20 and reinforced Don Bosco Tech Society’s commitment to holistic youth and community empowerment.
