All for a cause

An usual Saturday morning for me begin past 11 am, but last Saturday (22nd Dec 2007) was different and much special!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Contrast to any of a vacation, I was not only awake by 7:00 am, but also was ready for action that was coming my way at Forum Mall by 8:30 am.
Well if you are thinking that Forum is a popular hangout lace for Bangalore, then no award for guessing and I am talking about the same place :-) and if you are wondering that what the heck I was doing there that early............. read on :-)

Last weekend we (we as in bunch of enthusiasts calling ourself WinningAspirations) had put up a fund raising stall for PAPCP (Parents Association Of Persons With Cerebral Palsy And Associated Disorders). This was the very first activity for me as a part of this highly energetic & self motivated group WinningAspirations, which comprises of bunch of techies (I know Bangalore is full of them, but these are somewhat different as they have an zeal to go an extra mile & contribute for the society and our nation).

The stall was also an showcase for the work these special children of PAPCP organization. The main attractions at the stall were handicrafts made by these children (with the help of special instructors & volunteers) like paper bags, greeting cards, candles etc, and also their imagination painted on canvas. I would sincerely like to thank people of Bangalore who had shown great interest in these articles and made this fund raiser a great success. Exceeding everyone's expectation, we were able to raise more than 40K in just two days (again thanks to Bangalore ki janta)....................

This whole experience was a great learning on its own, but it had given a deep sense of satisfaction & motivation to carry such activities in future. Hats off to all the guys who had put in their efforts for this.
