WADALA, JULY 7, 2008: An ‘Anti Drug Addiction Programme’ was organized by the Wadala Police on June 24, at Wadala East. A large number of students and several NGOs participated in the programme. Fifteen boys from Shelter Don Bosco performed a short but highly inspiring Street Play, highlighting the harmful effects of addiction. Over 600 people gathered around to watch this skit. The powerful message conveyed through this street play was greatly appreciated by the audience. A Social Worker present there was so impressed by the performance that she invited them to re-enact the play for a group of persons addicted to drugs. The Police who organized this event were also full of praise for the excellent performance put up by the Shelter boys.
