Hmmm, Many of the current members involved in the Community Service Acts are not students (atleast not yet!!) But even if they turn out to be sooner or later, it will be a great thing to see them contribute to the society one way or the other. People who come selflessly week after week do not do it for any specific gain, they do it for the concern they have for others. Too sad for people who do it for a small stint... as far our efforts are concerned, the newbies come on their own and when they stop (for whatever personal reason!) they tend to carry on the feeling with them.. maybe at a later date, I am confident that they will strive to do their bit... Something like our PG CS acts help to raise the consciousness of a few guys!!

Being a part of a service for a long term , though is a tough ask but one should try to be associated with a cause for as long as possible- even celebrities do that too.
|
Being associated with just one particular activity is definitely difficult as we all move from places and hence, it is not sustainable. Consider me, during school, I worked with some old-age homes & environmental things... then in college with orphanages... Later, again with a bigger orphange on a regular basis. Now, trying my best help people with the newsletter, as well as our help for the disabled people. So, trying to stay with one cause throughout might be difficult... so, the drift towards anything is good as long as it is towards a good cause!!

My purpose for starting this separate thread is:-
1) I look forward to guys/gals with interest/association in sports.
2) Purpose: Sports related 'community enrichment' of mentally retarded children/sports talents et al.
I look forward to energetic & 'PASSIONATE' members, who can not necessarily devoted much time, but real effort on their part.
on a look out for sports passiante with a genuine desire to help a cause , really neglected by many.

Sportspassion, it is great to see some enthu here
All I am saying is, outline ur agenda here and try to raise the support u get from the forum members. You are welcome to post ur ideas & concerns and see how many people actually want to come out & help u. PMing throughout might be difficult.. as many others who have some definite interests will lose out. So, if u choose to start something, let us all know... we can also try to be of some lil help!!
Hope to see this thread grow...
Cheers,
Simba
