Sridhar has a friend who studies in a medical college in Chennai. She and a group of other students have decided to take up the herculean task of changing people's lives. They have 'adopted' an urban slum near their college and are now working for its development. They are educating the children and the elders and working towards the improvement of their standard of living. The community which is reaping the benefits of their work is called Ramavaram and the students have named their organisation Sangam India.
On our way to Gurgaon on a friday morning, when it was raining cats, dogs and even mice, we were discussing what we could do from our end to help them. Starting a parallel in our city wouldn't help because we would face the same problems that they are doing right now. Therefore we decided to start work as their support system and provide them with whatever aid we can so that they can continue the marvelous job they're doing without having to worry about how they are going to sustain it.
You can visit their website to read about what they are doing and how you can help. In case you live near Delhi-NCR and want to help us, contact us at sidelhi@sangamindia.org.
There will be further updates about what we have done because there is something we have planned to do on the Independence Day weekend.
Points: 1 Billion new and improved Jumbo points to the people at Sangam India.
One-liner: Where there is a will, there is a way.
