Sangam India Newsletter, May 2009

Hello!

Sangam India brings to you its newsletter for the month of May. Before we leave for our summer break in May, here’s a synopsis of the last month.

For starters, the Education Programme for children has gained an exhilarating momentum. With every visit the kids learn new lessons - and make sure we learn from them too. Simple activities from colouring to role playing are used to make learning fun. Currently Bhavya and her team are hard at work to create more lesson plans, and any help associated with this will be more than appreciated. An Educational Committee has been made to develop the curriculum. The details of this can be procured from our website: http://www.sangamindia.org

Legal intricacies are being worked on by the Legal Team of Sangam India. Hopefully our efforts will lead to the much desired consequence of acquiring an NGO status as soon as possible.

Anand Charity (a California-based NPO) has been kind enough to recognize our cause and mention our work in their quarterly publication News@Anand (http://blog.anandcharity.org). We thank them for this appreciation.

While most of the Sangam Team will be away in the month of May, the regulars will keep up their diligence. Rest assured that the “away team” will work on the necessary research to create better plans for the coming months, so distance is just a number.

With summer at its peak, we hope the team that has headed home has some respite from the agonizing heat and will come back in June, rejuvenated and ready to work!

Happy Holidays everyone!
