Dear all: As we begin to celebrate our 5-year anniversary next year, we are pleased to announce our theme for 2005: Year of the Goan Child. We intend to focus a majority of our volunteer efforts in 2005 on Goan children. Some specific goals we have set for 2005: 1. Become involved in medical care for Goan children (raising awareness and funds). 2. Provide educational grants (including scholarships) for Goan children/orphanages. 3. Raise awareness for the Goa Children�s Act. See the complete Act at http://goagovt.nic.in/documents/goachildact2003.pdf. 4. Raise awareness for children�s rights, and other issues which have adversely impacted our Goan children (child labor, child sex abuse, etc.) We are excited by the new volunteers who have joined us. As we move forward with great enthusiasm, we look forward to your support. You have two choices: do nothing or become involved. We hope you become involved. Please contact Marissa de Almeida at [EMAIL PROTECTED] if you wish to volunteer. We thank all of you for your past support which has inspired us to do more and provided the momentum to keep going. Please forward this email to your family and friends. Best regards, Board of Directors, Goa Sudharop www.goasudharop.org P.S. Our theme for 2006: Year of the Goan Senior, more information to follow later.
