Dear Friends,

Trust things are great your end.

I am writing in to invite you to join me in supporting the aTEEtude of Giving campaign which will be live until 01 Oct , 2010.It basically challenges netizens to give new objects as opposed to donating old things lying around under the guise of charity and gives them a simple proposition:

Buy 1 > Get 2 = Keep 1 + (we) Donate1: all at regular the price

This campaign aims to help underprivileged students studying at the night schools powered by NGO Masoom.

You can participate from India, US, UK and Canada. Simply use discount code ‘ateetudeofgiving’ at checkout on:

- MithaiMate.com to donate a box of brownies for anything (chocolates/cakes/mithais) you purchase.

- Inkfruit.com to donate a brand new t-shirt for every t-shirt you buy yourself.

More details on this campaign are available here.

The beneficiaries i.e. lesser privileged students work as courier boys, garage workers etc. during the day to support their families and have enough enthusiasm to go to school at night. They are passionate, motivated and well-grounded individuals. With the educational training imparted by Masoom, they will turn into self made citizens that will do this country proud. This is what inspired me personally when I met the students last year, apart from the glowing smiles on their faces on receiving new gifts.

I look forward to your support in the way you think is the best.

Regards,
