We are pleased to invite you to Ambedkar Scholarships 2007 function to be held in Hyderabad on April 27, 2008. We are going to distribute around 75 scholarships of Rs.5,000 in this function. Among them, 10 scholarships each are given to students in Tamilnadu (Sakya Hostel for Tsunami effected orphans) and UP (school for Scavenging children being run by Mr Vidya Bhushan Rawat). Complete details will be sent to you in a weeks time. This is to inform you in advance to mark your calendars to attend the function if you are in and around Hyderabad or to inform your friends there. This year, we are also honoring Ms Baby Kamble, the author of The Prisons We Broke not in the function, but in a separate function in Maharashtra. We have already got pledges for Rs.25,000 and expecting more as many people showed interest in honoring her. I recommend you to read the book to appreciate her greatness despite of her humble background. If any one is interested, we welcome you to contribute to her fund. Apart from Rs.5,000, we distribute Dr Ambedkar biography to every scholar. If anyone is willing to donate these books, please come forward. We are in need of books in Tamil(10), Hindi (10), and Telugu(55). So, please come forward to help us. We print your name on each book you donate. For the past 5 years we have been very pleased with the scholars we are selecting their dynamism, optimistic attitude despite several odds in their lives. In every function we invite them on to the stage to address the gathering. I am proud to say how great they were on stage in the past and how much happy we felt for the opportunity we got to help them through our generous donors. So, please attend the experience the thrill first hand and the satisfaction of helping these brilliant scholars. Please advertise it on all the forums freely. We wish to see you in the function. With regards Benjamin P Kaila
