announcing godsownchild
Posted on 7th September 2008 by Taggyiam going to use this post to gather the initial views/thoughts about this idea which iam calling GodsOwnChild .
Long time ago i did write a post about how i believed Uthavum Karangal and other similar associations are doing a wonderful job .something each one of must also be doing .it was in the same post that Honey Bee commented why she thinks they aren’t actually doing a great job .
And i think her view was fair enough ,as much as famous these instituions may be and as big and remarkable work they seem to be doing ,the truth is there are still hundreds of such organisation which are struggling to support their cause . Money hasn’t simply reached them .
Two reasons that i think could be primary reasons
1.Lack of visibility
2.Lack of network
And i believe both visibility and networking are very essential for these organisations to survive.
GodsOwnChild is a small effort to be able to highlight such organisations through the web and hopefully be a channel for people who have the heart to give will be able to connect .
Anyone who visits an orphange or a school with limited resources and needing more ,would write down a description of he situation,needs and if possible pictures/interviews/audio of the people/kids and also the contact details so that people can reach out to the needy .
My idea is not only to write about the needs or poverty but also to find stories ,rather heroes among them ,for they would be great examples and people know that with some help from all of us the organisations could possible produce more heroes :) .
For the moment its only me who would be writing .But i would love to see people joining in. Not necessarily people who write content.
Designers who can make a great theme for wordpress ,people who can share camera’s.people who can help people doing the interviews with travel .
Helping maintain the content quality and contribute monetarily as well .
We are just starting up so feel free to reach out to me if you have an idea/thought or would like to join in and take this idea forward .

PS:any WP designers listening ?
I like the idea, will be glad to help if needed :) I have performed in a few charities at Chennai and maybe they could be brought to light. One of them was a hiv place and another was a school kinda place.
