Dear friends
Namaskar
With your kind support, last academic year we were able to support
about 14 children for their education who studied in 10th and 9th
standards in VIKASA school and VIDHYA MANDHIR, Ramamurthy Nagar,
Bangalore. This academic year also there are a few children who look
forward for our support to bear their education expenses. The children
live in a slum in Ramamurthy Nagar.
In Vidhya Mandhir, the annual fees for a child is Rs.3625 (there are 3
children looking for our support ) and in Vikasa school, the annual
fees is Rs. 2025, per child (there are 10 children from std 10, who
needs help ).
Interested people please contact:
Ms. Sharmila Murugavel, at 23681155, 9845181868
Ms. Charu Sharma, at 9243034446
Ms. Sanjana Khanna, at 23681139, 8050699915

Sub : Request for financial help.
My son Master Suraj Patil ( age 17 yrs) has polio in his left leg.
The leg was a little bent. It was operated three times and a steel
rod was inserted. After 5 years of operation, due to a fall while
playing he was again hurt and ankle got twisted and started paining,
When shown to Dr. Mangal Parihar at Mangal Anand Hospital, Chembur,
Mumbai, ( Maharashtra, India) he advised for another immediate
operation. The cost Including operation charges & hospitalisation etc.
is estimated around Rs. 1.5 lacs.
My meagre salary in no way will be sufficient to meet this huge
expense. Voluntary donations from generous people will only rescue
my child from this major handicap and I earnestly pray for help.
Those who are desirous of extending financial help, can send the money
directly to my Bank A/c. No. 43010400004862 with IDBI Bank, Thane
Branch ( Maharashtra) or by cheque in favour of Ramachandra B Pail
at Room NO. 6, Gajanan Krupa Society, Shingre Wadi, Bail Bazar, Kurla

Dear Friends,
This mail, may be first of its kind in the last 12 years of our work, is not about what we are doing or plan to do. (Please refer www.goonj.org for regular updates)
Here are 6 critical requirements, ways to engage to strengthen the work. Do read, revert, act and pass on the message to your friends, colleagues and relatives if you think they can also join this movement!!
1. TEAM 2000: It’s about bringing together a strong team of 2000 people who contribute a sum of Rs. 10,000/- or more in a year. (About $ 250 or just about Rs. 800/- a month) It’s NOT like an EMI or a lifelong commitment. Give till you feel comfortable or trust the work. Commit less or more…although we are looking for 2000 people to commit Rs. 10,000/- or more... Apart from taking care of major regular expenses, the money will be used for growth, expansion and wider replication.
We are sure that it is achievable and like all other initiatives of GOONJ, we want TEAM 2000 also to be driven by the volunteers.. do sign up, spread the word, talk to people to join TEAM 2000.A simple form is enclosed giving the money transfer options. Contributions in India are tax exempted u/s 80G of IT act.
2. Vehicles: With the spread, transport cost has gone up and material inflow at GOONJ is increasing. Pick up vans are an immediate need in Delhi, Mumbai, Hyderabad, Bangalore, Kolkata & Jalandhar (@ approx 4.5 lakh rupees). An Informal group, Focus India Forum from Singapore has just taken care of the vehicle in Chennai. Possible contacts with vehicle companies or to get the discounted rates are welcome.
3. Computers/laptops: For the past many years we have somehow managed with the used lot of computers. Now when we are focusing on MIS, trying to use technology to maximize the potential, we need high end, good systems. Laptops are preferred as most team members spend a lot of time in the field. Our requirement is of 25 Computers/laptops and 7 printers/photocopy machines .
4. Transport support: or linkages with transport companies to reach out material to hundreds of towns/villages across the country.
5. Space: We are looking for about 2000 sq. ft. space for a processing centers/storage in Delhi-NCR, Mumbai, Jalandhar, Chennai and Hyderabad either pro-bono or on minimum possible rent. Chennai and Hyderabad are most urgent.
6. Linkages with garment industry people: primarily dealing with cotton and hosiery surplus, under/non utilized material.We are producing about 2,00,000 (2 lakh) sanitary pads and undergarments for women right now and the demand is much more !!
Feel free to write back with your queries/suggestions/comments. Do send out this message to as many people as you can. A form to join ‘Team 2000’ enclosed below…
Looking forward…
With best

Help send Cycle Chalao! to the Unreasonable Institute! Click here to
support us now - the race to raise Rs 3.15 lakhs is on! In last seven
days 34 people have pledged Rs.65,000! Help us keep the movement!
Hi everyone! I'm Raj and I'm the founder of Cycle Chalao!, India's
fastest-growing cycle sharing program. I'm THRILLED to announce that
we've been selected as a finalist for the Unreasonable Institute. Now
I need your help to get there - and then to get all of India cycling!
The Unreasonable Institute is one of the most exciting events in the
world of social entrepreneurship. In June, Unreasonable Institute will
bring 25 young social entrepreneurs to the beautiful American mountain
city of Boulder, Colorado. For six weeks, the fellows will live and
work with 60 world-class mentors, pitch to hundreds of investors, and
prepare to launch financially self-sustaining, globally scalable
ventures that can serve the needs of at least one million people. This
is the support that Cycle Chalao! needs to transform India.
Cycle Chalao! is a social venture promoting cycling in India by
establishing bicycle sharing networks to provide bicycles on rent for
short distance traveling. The vision of the project is to 'Integrate
cycling in the mainstream public transportation thereby reducing
traffic, air and noise pollution'. By providing point to point bicycle
rental services citizens will empowered to have an environment
friendly, economic and healthier way of traveling short distances.
I'm one of 45 finalists. I will only make it to Unreasonable if I'm
one of the first 25 of us to raise Rs 3.8 Lakh by 11th March, 2011.
The time has already started and we need to raise that money as soon
as possible to be in the first 25!
Rs 3.8 lakh is a lot, but I'm not looking for big donations. The idea
is to get as many people donating as possible - the limit per person
is Rs 2500 for current week i.e. till 3 Feb (then the limit goes up to
Rs 5000 i.e. from 3rd Feb to 9th Feb). If we don't make it as one of
the first 25, we'll get to keep what we raised and use it in our
venture.
So PLEASE sign on today and donate whatever you can. If you want to
donate by cash, cheque or wire transfer, email me at
raj@cyclechalao.com or call me at +91 9867987031. Spread the message
as far and wide as possible - to your professional networks, at your
university, to your friends, at your cycle shop - wherever! All
sponsors get recognition on Unreasonable's website and ours. Click
here to see the FAQ's and tax deduction facility for sponsors from
U.S.
Send us to the Unreasonable Institute so we can help end pollution,
fight congestion and make cycling THE way to get around in India.
THANK YOU for your support! Get in touch with me if you have any questions -

Subject: Request for help for landslide affected people in Uttarakhand
Dear Friends,
Hope you are well and had a great beginning to the new year.
I am writing to ask for some help, hoping you will consider this
request and also pass this letter along to others.
You might have heard about the landslides in Uttarakhand due to the
heavy rains in September 2010. Along with the destruction of lives and
property, the disaster also made the areas inaccessible, making it
difficult to send aid for the affected people. The people have been
trying to pick up the pieces and reconstruct their lives to start a
fresh new year. To aid in this, Dinesh, a young person from
Uttarakhand whom I know has been trying to collect and transport
relief materials for the affected people. With support from Goonj, a
very active relief agency, he has been able to get a large amount of
material including clothes, ration materials, household items etc for
500 affected families in the area. The transport of the material (100
gunny bags) to Almora and then the affected villages requires a total
of 22,000 rupees. We are trying to raise this money through donations
from friends and supporters. I am forwarding Dinesh's request for help
and attaching a letter that he has written with this email.
Dinesh is from a small village called Garam Paani situated close to
Almora and has been working on social issues with local people
independently for the last few years. He does not have a registered
organisation and has sought support from a local body called for
managing the accounting and proper use of these funds. I have
volunteered to collect in Delhi and send to Dinesh by the 31st of
January. Even small contributions would go a long way in ensuring that
the materials reach the right people in time and I strongly urge you
to donate whatever you wish and can spare for this cause. I know
Dinesh and can vouch for his good intentions and commitment towards
the local people.
I am based in Delhi and can organise to meet you and collect your
contribution. Any contribution and your support in forwarding this
request to others would be of immense help.
Thanks!
Manak.
PS: Manak's email id is at the top of this mail. Please contact him
directly if you wish to contribute in any way.

Dear Chandni,
First off, thank you for spreading the word about SaveLIFE Foundation. I wanted to connect with you to tell you more about SLF and seek your help in raising some funds for our work. Here's a quick introduction to what we do -
SaveLIFE Foundation
SaveLIFE Foundation is a public charitable trust registered under sections 12AA and 80G of the Income Tax Act, 1961. As you are perhaps aware, India has the dubious distinction of being world no. 1 in road accident deaths. Every 4 minutes someone loses their life in a road accident somewhere in India. A major reason of such a high number of deaths is that almost 80% victims are unable to achieve access to any care within the first hour of the accident, often called the Golden Hour. Bystanders merely serve as spectators and Police is largely apathetic and untrained to handle the injured. It is a known medical fact that if bleeding can be controlled in time or CPR administered within 15 mins of the pulse stopping, hundreds of lives, which are otherwise lost, can be saved.
Our objective, therefore, is: 1) To train Police to save road accident victims as they are in most cases the first official agency to respond; this training develops the skill-base as well as the emotional quotient of Police officers dealing with road victims, and 2) To train & connect common citizens to help road accident victims. The idea is also to work with the government to create legal and ethical standards for common people to feel free to help road victims. The video on this page will give you more information about what and how we do this: http://young.rolexawards.com/laureates/piyush_tewari. If you like i'll be happy to call you and explain our work in more detail.
Given that we provide this training for free (and there's a well thought-out reason behind that), we have exhausted almost all of our available funds and are struggling to continue training the Police in Delhi. I am therefore contacting several people for help. Each training session caters to 50 police officers and costs us Rs. 5,000 at the very least. In order to complete the training of remaining Police officers we need to raise Rs. 100,000. Given that we are registered under Section 80G of IT Act, donors will get income tax benefit, and on our part we will provide complete details including pictures, names, belt numbers and zones of the Police officers being trained.
Any help from you will be greatly appreciated.
Let me know if you need more information.
Regards,
Piyush

Dear Sir/Madam
Sub: Request for Support-"you can change a life"
Greetings from Save a Child Trust (SACT)
Save A Child Trust (SACT) is a non-profit humanitarian institution started by Dr Kirti Jain (Chairman and Managing Director-GBH American Hospital) and Dr Chirayu Pamecha (Co-Founder SACT, and Spine Surgeon GBH American Hospital) in association with GBH American Hospital, Udaipur.
This project was started in July 2008 to help children from economically weaker sections with spinal deformities irrespective of their gender, religion, caste or color.
SACT in collaboration with GBH American Hospital Udaipur treats the poor children at a highly subsidized cost. While the Scoliosis correction surgery in a normal hospital costs around Rs4 to 5lakhs, we under our initiative get it done for Rs 2.0to 2.5lakhs. This amount covers hospitalization, regardless the length of stay for the youngster which is borne by GBH American Hospital and other chargers such as surgery and implant costs, other medical needs, teaching programs and administration, which are raised by SACT from external sources.
In this regard, we hope to collaborate with different institutions/individuals which can support us in our endeavors and become a part of our mission.
As per your requirement please find enclosed the details.

Exact amount needed and by which date:
The demand for our services is overwhelming. Since our inception in July 2008, we have examined over 300 children in our free clinic and operated 6 children with complex spinal deformities like Scoliosis and Kyphosis. Currently, four children are awaiting treatment/surgrery and SACT is making all efforts to raise necessary funds for them. In the future, we plan to operate at least 24 children annually for which we will need substantial funds.
Exact amount required for these 4 children is Rs. 8lkhs.
The break up of the surgery cost is as following:
| Particulars | Cost (in Rs) |
| ICU Charges | 4,500 |
| Nursing, Physiotherapy Charges | 7,500 |
| Pharmacy and Consumables | 20,000 |
| Investigations ( Blood Ix, PFT, CT scan, etc) | 14,000 |
| OT Charges | 19,000 |
| Implants | 1,35,000 |
| Total | 2,00,000 |
Till now Rs. 3.8lkhs has been raised through corporate, individual donations, religious charity. We are short of Rs. 4.2lkhs.
Looking forward to hearing from you, I remain
Sincerely yours,
Shilpa Jaiswal Bist
