What is ACE 2006?
ACE 2006 will be a battle among the best brains from India's top corporate houses. The Quiz Master for the competition will be J. Krishnamurthi, one of India's top-ranked quizzers and a key member of Quizerati, a team of avid quiz experts. The quiz offers participants a chance to pit their brains against the best, win attractive prizes and most importantly lend their support to a deserving cause. The proceeds received from this would go towards the welfare of needy students at Ramakrishna Upper Primary School at Yellammabanda, Kukatpally, Hyderabad.

ACE 2005 attracted Thirty-Eight Teams from various companies in the twin cities and helped us raise around 2 lakh rupees, which was used towards providing mid day meal to over 240 children suffering from malnutrition at Ramakrishna School, Kukatpally.

Bommalata" or "A Belly Full of Dreams", a non-commercial venture from famous Telugu movie director, K Raghavender Rao, is all about realizing one's dreams despite all obstacles. This message-oriented film debuts Raghavender Rao's son Prakash Rao as the director and shows how difficult it is for an underprivileged child to attend school. The movie showcases how the entire world comes to your aid when you are determined to follow your dream.

A premier show of the film is being organized for Principals of schools and corporates. The details are as follows:

Venue: Prasad Film Labs, Road No 2, Banjara Hills (Opposite L V Prasad Eye Hospital)
Date and Time: July 9th, 2006, 06.30 PM.

We are screening this movie to bring together various volunteer groups so that we can plan out how best we can help the movie reach a wider spectrum of audience.
We can help by organizing corporate shows and creating more awareness about the dream of under privileged children.
We can also organize shows for the Kids from various NGOs we work with and motivate those kids to pursue their dreams.

Kindly let me know if the Volunteer group of your organization would be interested in taking up this activity and joining hands with other Volunteer groups. Since we will have limited seats at the Film labs do let me know how many people from your Volunteer group would want to come for the screening.
