Website development and Objectives

[Rajesh Mulchandani]

Folks,

 

I have been reading all your post and I must say I am in no state of hibernation J

 

First of all let me congratulate you all for taking this initiative.

 

I have few things to add to the group. See if it helps.

 

1. The most important thing is keep the running cost low. For e.g. to advertise this group, the best free media is Internet. You can reach billions of people for virtually no cost at all. Money saved is more money contributed to the cause….
2. About building website, I am a software developer so I can contribute here. Are there any other developers in the group?  We can start with very basic site and then move to more sophisticated once we have some funds and more traffic to site. I know some web designers and I can ask them if they would be interested in contributing to this group.
3. In India there are children who can’t afford basic primary education even though it is free. I think for the price of sponsoring someone’s flight to UK, we can sponsor primary education for 10 children. What do you think is better? I think a person who can afford the fees of UK HEI can afford a flight.
4. Big organisations like Wipro have their own trust for such cause. We might be lucky to get some money out of such organisations. I think our primary fund raisers would be NRI’s and people with disposable income in India.

 

This is just a start. More as we move along…

Any comments are welcome.

 

Thanks

 

Rajesh Mulchandani

Thanks very much Rajesh for your kind and logical suggestions, and
offering your expertise to help building a website for the Trust.
Please do invite as many people you think could contribute...

I am in complete agreement with Mr Rajesh about all his raised points,
i.e., about

1. Advertising our Trust,
2. Paying more attention to the primary educational support, and
3. Our potential sources of funding

I request everyone to please post your suggestions, every single
suggestion could make a big impact on the decision making.

Thanks to all,

Suresh

Is there any way, we could merge all similar kind of discussions in a
single thread?

I dont think that Google group gives this type of facility as
available in the forums,

I tried various available options, could not do that. If you remove
the message from here and paste at its right place, then we will loose
the authors.....as it will then be you as the author and also everone
will recieve repeat emails for those repeat posts.
