Hey Guys....a brief intro about a new project I propose (Education Group) :
Nirali was a 2yr old little girl who was very close to my heart, who passed away this April 27th, 2007, fighting ALL - Acute Lymphoblast Luekemia. For more on her brave effort to fight the disease, and the whole story, pls visit her website at www.savenirali.com. In the updates section, you can read how it all started, and what all the parents and this little child underwent, and in the support section you will see messages from tons of well wishers and supporters, tht includes some of my messages aswell. FYI, I donot know this family personally, and have only met them thru the website, but luvvd Nirali as my own, since day 1. This little angel has touch so many lives, including mine, and many of us who met thru the website, wish to do something in her honour & memory. Many have expressed their wish to join this group, and soon we will see some new members here. I thought of doing this thru our group, if all of you support, and plan the project with ur help. Here is a gist of what I propose to do: Nirali Naik's Little Scholar Programme: A small fund ( or how much ever comes in donations to this Cause, a part of it) that will help provide basic thru elementary education to kids who come from families with limited means. We can also meet some Book & other stationery needs of these students on this project. Nirali Naik's Little Scholar Award: Something that the topper in the class will be honoured with, a cash award, that can be redeemed against school fee pay. Implementation part: Choose a school or a family, where we can implement it this year, and in future, to where feasible. In short, this is what I would like to do. Our own already existing members, who will be interested to donate to this project, please mail back. I am expecting some funds from other sources aswell. So lets see on the whole how it goes. If any member has a thought, or a question on this, pls shoot a mail. I will be more than happy to clarify/answer. -Divya Since we are already done with this year, perhaps we have couple of months down the line to plan this project well. Needless to mention though, I will go with the consensus on the decision about this proposal.
