We have started a program called 'yuj' which aims at tapping academic resources of the nation to serve the needs of NGOs / small organizations / govt. and others. Visit : http://www.yuj.in/ for the details. One of our motives is to demonstrate and promote FOSS as cost-effective and healthy methodology for development of the nation. We installed Ubuntu and some educational software in "Mrityunjoy Night School , Kandivili". The people who have interests similar to us can join and help the team achieve the goals.
