Hello all –
As mentioned in my earlier, the goal for this drive is to approach each of our reader community and collect Rs 1000/- towards supporting veda pata salas that require support.
Where are we?
Thanks to each and every one of you, who have generously come forward to support. Thanks to several folks who are spreading the word like a forest fire… Hoping to get favorable responses from them as well..
When you send the cheques, please ensure to send your name, address and your email id in a piece of paper along with the cheque. This is very essential for tracking. Even if you want to sponsor anonymously, I still need these info.
On the criteria on what veda pata salas are to be chosen, I am going to entrust that to Shri Chandramouli – however I will be consulted before anything is finalized. If you have any suggestions on veda pata salas, please send me a note and we will include them in our list to be considered. I will share the list of pata salas with all of you before get into action.
Please read: Please bear in mind, Shri Chandramouli has a regular job and in addition, he is doing this service. So I would like to assist him by not bombarding him with too many status report requests on a very frequent basis. Initially we will share the schools, their situation, how the funds will be spent etc. On an ongoing basis, we will share a yearly report to all donors via this blog – any additional updates in between will be made as situation changes. If anyone has any apprehension about this, please let me know now. This will help making a decision.
Once again, sincere thanks to each and every donors.
Very Very special thanks to Sri V.Sreenivasan, and Sri Suresh Panchanathan for an outstanding support in spreading the word to 100s of their friends/families and I am seeing lots of responses from them….
Jaya Jaya Shankara Hara Hara Shankara
Regards
Mahesh
