Hi Chaitanya, Thanks for the update.
Jyothi Valaboju of TeluguBlog and Hyderabad Masti group has been very supportive to us. She came to know about us through Prasad Charasala garu. She motivated Hyderabad Masti members (a google group of 15000+ members with high activity) to come forward for social work. Some of them are ready and willing to contribute 100 rs. a month. They are interested in Medical Help. I shared the urls of our group and BOSF and also about our proposal which can be implemented in NIMS or Niloufer. I forwarded your mail to them. Let us see their response. What we need to do is, we have to make an estimate of the money for each need and project. Then we will share the details with all groups. Whoever are interested to contribute will contribute directly or through us. I suggested to meet Hyderabad Masti members sometime and also asked them to decide and contribute in Hyderabad Masti group name.
