Varanasi is going winter season now. Children are coming in the school morning and evening time wearing thick clothes. Two volunteers from The Netherlands & Australia they are also coming morning and evening time for teaching the kids.
About the new land project still now we are collecting money to acquire the land and we have collected around Rs. 312000 (4536 euros, 6708 USD). The total costs just for the land are at the moment Rs. 750000 (10906 Euros, 16126 USD) which means there is still a large amount to collect.

this video was made at the land we wish to acquire. Just little outside the city. and on one of the plots of the land we wish to build the school, garden and place for the volunteers. Where poor, street and slums children can come, stay and get education and food. Volunteers they can teach, cook, and also help with the construction of the building or any arts they have they can give here.
right now we have totally 45 children and many more also so they all are waiting for the new place. We want to make everything very practically this reason we have decided to make there also rooms for the volunteers.
We hope you all will give your support , idea, help & suggestion in this project & definitely we will achieve our goal.

Remembering Mumbai

Yesterday 26-11-09 children and volunteers burnt candles for the victims of terrorist attack of Mumbai exactly one year ago. Holding the candles we prayed for the victims of these attacks and prayed for the peace.

Some volunteers also applied Henna ( Mehndi ) to the hands of the children. This way the sadness was followed by happier things. This way we show that after sadness happiness will follow again. We should not to bend to the terrorist attack & keep smiling even through difficulties.
