Bangalore School – Uniform donation
Work is still on to select uniform for the Bangalore School children. We had been to a shop looking for the dress material. Need to do check with a few more shops and then finalize the dress material. The Head Teacher had spoken to a Tailor to get his consent to stitch dresses for all the School children at a reasonable price (at around Rs 60 per pair)
That’s the short update for this week. Do share your feedback, if any

Request from Bangalore Head Teacher
There is a request from Bangalore School (Government Lower Primary School, Vibhuthipura) head in charge, Sheela Madam, to provide School uniform for the all the School children. Already one pair of dress is being provided by the Government and this request is for a second pair
Below are the details
- For each pair of dress, cost will come to Rs 170 or 180 (maximum below Rs 200)
- This cost is including the stitching charges (of Rs 50 or Rs 60)
- So the total cost for the whole School (approx 120 children) may be Rs 25,000 maximum (minimum Rs 20,000)
The Teacher has said that we have to go to a shop, buy and then stitch. Teacher already knows 2 tailors who can take the measurement and have the uniform stitched. The Teacher is also ready to talk to a few donors and arrange some amount for this (upto Rs 4000 or 5000)
Do let know your opinion & comments on this request
Chennai - meeting with correspondent
The Chennai School, National Primary School, being run by a trust, we had plans to meet the School management and get their opinion on the roadmap they have thought for the School. Currently the School functions out of a rented building. The rental agrement comes to an end in less than 2 years. We got an appointment with correspondent on 26 May 2009 Morning. If there are any questions you would like to put forward, please write to us and we shall consolidate and put them forward
Thank you for all the suggestions/ideas, do keep them coming. It motivates us to work better
