Founder and Chairperson of Reliance Foundation, Nita Ambani, helped spread the cheer of festive season amongst 4,000 underprivileged children on Wednesday by giving them a special preview of JioWonderland.

At par with international carnivals, JioWonderland gave the children an exclusive preview of the exciting attractions such as drone shows, carousels, magic acts, Ferris wheel, trampoline parks, meet and greet with Santa Claus, photo booths and others.

A special character parade including the Hamley and Hattie bear from Hamleys Family brought extra cheer to the day where the children saw their favourite characters in-person.

Children carried back the memories of a mesmerising experience and special gifts handed over to them by Ambani and Santa Claus, the statement said.

Going with the colours of the festival, Nita Ambani donned a green polka dot top with knot detailing along with blue denims. She teamed her outfit with gold block heels and diamond studs. She amped up her look with her tresses left open as she opted for a shimmery base, tangerine lipstick and a stroke of eyeliner.

On the other hand, Isha Ambani wore a red-buttoned down dress which had puffed sleeves. She paired her outfit with red and blue heels and diamond earrings. Isha also kept her hair open and she kept her makeup to a minimum as she opted for subtle hues of nude and pink.

Nita Ambani, along with Isha Ambani Piramal, marked the opening of JioWonderland by switching on the lights of India's tallest sustainable Christmas tree, the statement said.

The tree is a representation of the plastic waste collected by Reliance employees as part of the Reliance Foundation's Recycle4Life campaign, a 'Swachhata hi Seva' initiative. This drive, which resulted in a collection of over 78 tons of plastic waste bottles, also contributed to the making of the tree.

Nita Ambani said, "It is the season of joy and giving and I strongly believe that the cheer should be shared with the children first and foremost. Children deserve a holistic life perspective and it comes from an understanding and experience of various aspects of life including the joy of the festive season.

Nita Ambani added, "Every child should have the right to play and Reliance Foundation was delighted to provide the opportunity for 4000 underprivileged children to be the first to experience and enjoy the new JioWonderland."

An annual mega- extravaganza, JioWonderland is set to become a calendar event in the city of Mumbai, read a statement from Reliance Foundation.

Reliance Foundation, under Nita Ambani's leadership, has been organising Christmas celebrations for underprivileged children since 2012. It also supports Hamleys' toy donation drive which this year has distributed over 5000 toys to underprivileged children across India.
