I got an update from my collegue Kanna, who promised $1000 initially. He approached the needy through his own route and helped them. In his own words.
" Uday, My brother is working as a doctor in that area so we have given 30000INR to that family. Please let me know if you need any other details. Thanks, -Kanna " Thanks, Uday ----- Original Message ---- From: Udaya Bhaskar <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: [email protected] Sent: Monday, April 16, 2007 8:21:59 PM Subject: Re: [tomakeadifference] New Case from Eenadu I will follow up with him.

Here is the address. Majji Tarakeswara Rao, S/o Majji Sriramamurthy, Pedakotipalli (Po/Vill), Palakonda (Mandal), Srikakulam Dist Pin: 532440. Eenadu Palakonda Reporter: Niranjan Patnaik: 9441001221. Let us discuss about this case. Are you willing to take up? Uday garu, is your friend interested in this case? Is he ready to sponsor 1000$? If so, we can talk with the reporter and ask them (the family) to apply for CM, PM Fund and if they belong to SC or ST caste, we can apply for Ambedkar Fund as well.

Seems the family is whitecard family (I mean BPL) and they can apply for CM and PM Fund. There is Ambedkar Foundation Fund if they are SCs. But this is a big procedure as we have to get sign from an MP. Problem is only of volunteers. Since they are from Srikakulam, they might expect our support here. If not emotional support, we have to guide them reg. CM, PM and other funds. I am not sure if they can get the signature of an MP. Anyways as the hospital in question is NIMS, it is somewhat better. As soon as I saw your mail, I mailed to E-RK. Obviously the people might not have any cell. I asked them to give the number of the reporter. Now I get an idea to find out any groups pertaining to that place and get donations from them - Local Donors. Sravan Kumar Patnaik belongs to Srikakulam. Sravan garu, if you know any groups in Srikakulam or of that place, please forward the case to them. Tell them that first monetary support is needed. If we can get monetary support, we can knock Aashish and his friends for Volunteer support as they can take time after their classes. Let us see how it goes. -- Thank you. with regards, PRASANTHI. ---- When you want something, the whole universe conspires in helping you to achieve it.
