Hey there Cjoe

You bring up a good point about how with the economic boom taking place and poised to accelerate in the city, the infrastructure will start going to the dogs.

And the trash situation is seriously going for a toss... I am personally quite keen on doing something regarding this and have started off a small project of sorts in relation to it.

If you're serious and have some ideas about what you want to do...do PM me, I want to get something moving in the city.

Hi ,
I am a new member of the pagal guy community. I read your post and found it interesting. I was thinking along the same lines. I am interested in starting an NGO for educating poor children and hope to create some funds for a startup through ads on my website. You can check out my site http://udaysankar-entrepreneur.blogspot.com. My email Id is uday.kandolath@gmail.com. Feel free to contact me. Oh, and I live in Cochin, Kaloor to be more precise.

hi uday,
its good that u have posted here... i was feeling that the noble cause with which Rani opened this thread would die off as such.... i think we can work something out and help with the social work. For that we need to form a group and plan our activities. But please refrain from posting ur email address on the forum as it is against the forum rules...

p.s. plz make the correction

Regards
Gaurav

As posted on the Cochin Orkut Group:

Hey Guys,

I just figured that I'd let you know about this little initiative happening in our own Cochin city.

There's a group called Make a Difference, thats come together in the last month or so, and they're focussing on providing meaningful and educational interaction with under-privileged children.

Check out their site here

You can join their Orkut group here.

They'll be meeting at 9:30 AM on Saturday at Women's Association, Near TDM Hall, MG Road.

Drop in if you're interested.


ps: Mods could you please change the thread name to "Cochin Community Service".

Hi,

This seems like a prospective beginning. I happen to look at their site, a novel effort indeed. I would try to make it to their meeting on Saturday.
I would definetely be interested in looking at how they intend to garner corporate support, an area where I have some expertise.

Thanx j0,

Hey Cjoe,

I really hope you make it to their meet today. I have to work and hence can't come by today, will probably meet these guys tomorrow or next weekend.

What about the rest of the junta? The threadstarter with her colorful enthusiasm seems to be missing here.

The same here, had to work today in lieu of the hartal last tuesday. Wished I could make it there.

Do let me know if these guys plan such an activity again.

Thanks
