Dear all
An update on the World Cup Goan soccer pool -
In June 2006, Gabe Menezes (London) kindly initiated a pool, proceeds to
benefit Senior Citizens
in Goa through Goa Sudharop. Thanks to all who contributed and to the winner,
www.goa-world.com,
who generously donated their winnings for a total amount of approximately Rs.
29,000/-.
After Goa Sudharop did their due diligence, the Senior Citizens Forum, Margao,
was selected to be
the recipient. Rs. 20,000/- will be disbursed to approximately 30 seniors for
medical needs. The
vetting process has been done to determine need and each individual selected
will receive
reimbursement for their medicines or spectacles or related medical need. This
process has taken
time to insure 100% of the money is spent with complete accountability so
donors can feel
satisfied their hard-earned money benefited those in need. The balance of Rs.
9,000/- will be
disbursed to seniors in due course.
Again, this effort is the result of a number of people, all done on a volunteer
basis. Although
time consuming, this shows what the World G.O.A.N. network can and has done in
the past. For those
of you who do not know, the World G.O.A.N. network stands for Goan
Organizations, Associations,
and NGOs/non-profits with supporters and volunteers on every continent (except
Antartica).
Sometimes, Goans actions speak louder than words and empty messages splashed
over cyberspace. It a
time for Goans to be proud of collectively having accomplished something.
Thanks to all for their support.
