We would like to thank you for your continued support and help in our final message for 2013. We simply could not have made such a difference without you. Please consider helping the children, most being disabled and or sick, in Snehalaya and educationg the girls from surrounding villages on this occasion and give them an opportunity for new life. Trustees and a group of generous donors have pledged to match every Pound or dollar or Rupee or any currency in fact given between now and Dec. 31, please do not miss this opportunity to double your donations. Pleasedonatenow
US tax payers for donations with tax benefits in US dollars, please donate through this link on GlobalGiving
Donations in indian Rupees with tax benefits for tax payers in India should be made to "GwaliorHospitalandEducationCharitableTrust"
Thanks to your generosity we are pleased to say that our new main stream school is fully functional now with 170 children (92 being dropped out girls) from surrounding villages getting educated there. In coming session, more will be admitted and we are sure soon it will attain its full capacity of 500 as planned. We continue with ongoing care for the children in Snehalaya as well to achieve sustainable development in slums and surrounding villages including health care, education, hygiene, sanitation, vaccination, safe drinking water, income generation etc.
What makes us different to most charitable organisations?
Although we operate in one of the poorest and most needy parts of India, the Gwalior Childrens Charity receives no government support. Not from local authorities. Not from regional or state sources. Not from central government. So we are forced to rely on the generosity of people around the world, like you. Any contribution, however small, is very much appreciated. All running administrative costs are met through the kindness of our trustees. Nothing is deducted for administration costs (unlike most welfare organisations) and where requested, we are able to focus 100% of funds received as per the wishes of the donor. In fact, the impact is more than 100% as we have so many dedicated volunteers who give their time and skills without any costs to charity and help us with money too.
Sometimes, when we look at the need, the prospect seems daunting. But we carry on, remembering the simple adage that "because you can't do everything, it doesn't mean you should do nothing". We depend upon you and our volunteers only. Please pass on our message to every one you know and do not hesitate to call me or write to me for any questions or further details as required. Thanks again. With regards and best wishes for a happy and prosperous New Year,
BK
