Hi all, Last weekend updates :
Shilpa went to School for Field program. this is her opinion & observations : Today, I went to Mehdipatnam School at 7.30 am and from there went to Bojagutta slum near by, along with Head master Naresh garu. Three more persons from Loksatta Party and two persons from M.V foundation joined us in this Educational awareness program. We all went to door to door and enquired about children, who are not going to school and some dropouts. We found around *12 children* as above and convinced their parents to join them in the school. It was all gone till 10.45 am. M.V foundation people are specifically working on this educational awareness in slum areas. They have appointed a lady, only for working on this. Every day she goes to the particular slum and tracks the children and get them to the school. Also they maintain a record of the same. It is really good work. We returned to school and spend ½ hr for the status enquiry. Mean time Diwakar garu spend his time with school children from 9 am to 11 am along with one more volunteer (I don’t know her name). As per Head master’s report now school strength is increased to *110*. And 10 more children are expecting from today’s program. Also I met Nagaraju garu (visually challenged person who has appointed by TMAD) and talked to him. Currently he is teaching Telugu and Social for 4thand 5 th class students. He said, if required he will teach other subjects also except Mathematics (Since, he can’t use board). And one more thing is, the three persons Mr. M.G.Sai Baba (GHMC Executive Committee member), Mr. Mahender and Mr. Prasad (Working in IBM) from Loksatta party are ready to work with us. They want to support our activities. I request our members to arrange a meet with them once and discuss regarding our current activities and further plans. So that it would be helpful to analyse, in which aspects we can utilize their support. Thanks a lot for your patience in reading long mail. Please share your views. Group II coaching case : we have this mail separately. updates of this case : Likhita went to coaching institute and asked for concession. they agreed around 45k for 11 students. And they are asking copy of our registration certificate & 80G sanctioned letter. In 11 students, 4 are in Hyderabad and remaining 7 are @ anthapur dist. Madhavi garu(who proposed this case to TMAD) will come to hyderabad with 7 students in couple of days. Once all they arrive to hyd, we have to pay the fees. In this case - we are not supporting financialy. Madhavi garu got funds from other sources.
