Record Audiobooks - Regional Fables

Introduction

We invite you to participate in our global giving campaign One Glenmark One Voice. By providing a few spare hours you can volunteer from home and create an impact which will help visually impaired kids not just this year but for several years to come.

Since regional fables are generally based on animal characters or mythological characters a small tweaking of your voice will go a long way in engaging the student in the story.

You can involve your family members and friends to participate with you in creating these fun stories and also share a small note on the moral of the story after the same is recorded.

Please use fables from the public domain and choose stories which are understandable by young audience.

While recording regional fables make sure that we do not hurt sentiments of any specific religion, caste or creed.

Please click here to access and download the fables or you can choose any of the fables from your region/country and record an audiobook.

Instruction for Volunteers

  2. Please use a good voice recording app on your smartphone/Laptop.
  3. If required use the noise and echo cancellation option in the app for optimum output.
  4. Settle yourselves in a clear space so the external noise is not overlapping in your recording.

  6. Start your recording by stating the “Region & Story Title” and “page number”. For example, you should start your recording by stating clearly "Aesop Fables - The Goose With the Golden Eggs"

Social Work

Several times you will be involved in activities where you are directly working for a social cause with the beneficiary. While we always have volunteering tasks created by or for NGOs, we realized the need of a 'social work' account where an initiative is taken
