Project Discover

Posted on 19th November 2007 by Taggy

Hello All,

Little things sometimes leave impressions that urges you to do something about it .My recent talks with people who run these home for special god’s own children are urging me to contribute .
Contribution that can be sustained even if at some point i were to leave or someone who can take it full time .

I must accept as HoneyBee pointed out udavum and other popular organizations atleast have established enough funding channels so that they will never fall short of money .But there are countless little struggling homes who are trying to serve the same needy poot but lack of exposure and lack of funding channels us hampering them .This is the case with hundreds of orphanage home and i am starting to believe it is also my duty to help people i share the world with help provide others a better chance to live their life .

And i did talk to a couple of people and i tried explaining to them ,all of us are net savvy and we know what internet can do .If we cannot donate money or enough time to help those children i think we can use the internet to give the exposure that can may be bring them to people who won’t mind spending their money for helping special homes.

We call it ProjectDiscover and the below points are what we aim to do .

1. Visit any of the ailing special homes ,talk to the people there ,about its history ,number of inmates,founder ,what work they do and what are their future plans and also their current needs ( be it a building or set of benches or a roof thats yet to be built ) .

2. Profile everything with a camera ( snaps/videos) and write about them on a website ( blog ) and make them publicly available .

3.Give out enough information on the website so that anyone interested can easily find a way to donate them and also explain to them the incentives of donating money .Like in udavum ,If i were to donate a school bag to a child ,then i would be sent a photo of the child with the bag . Would be great isn’t it ?

4. Also create a place where the children can even voice out their opinion .

Ofcourse one man can’t take this up ,it will require a strong team that doesn’t mind doing it .I personally hope to start off by visitng blind school just opposite to the G.H and to the Orphanage Near Vayalur Murugan Temple and to Thiruvellarai Old age Home .

I will do that once i reach trichy and just after my sem exams ending on nov 29 .

Any company ? or suggestions atleast ?

if you are interested then do get in touch we can atleast start off in a small way and help some :-)

I understand ,its probably a little too big at this point ,but would like to know if people can join and may be we could help some ?

your thoughts and opinions ?? what do you think about its feasibility ?
