If we have plan in hand, we can work on it. To devise a plan, we should go there a number of times and then we need to prepare reports.
First and foremost is most of the members should support taking up the activity. Once it is ok, we should get req. no. of volunteers with backup people. Also volunteers must do things as such that others can easily take over and fill your place. All times it may not be possible. But when it comes to teaching, we can make it possible. Personally, as a member, I am interested to take up the activity in Anikepalli. Again it doesn't mean that we start doing things right from Day 1. We will go there for teaching classes. Get hold of the people, their confidence, meanwhile observe and study. Go there with this goal, this is what I meant. But as one of the moderators, I wish to get the consensus on this issue. Majority of the members should support this idea, if not all.

As you all know in such activities , the most critical aspect is the time. How much time can a volunteer donate on a consistent basis.
