Move to set Blues foundation at Valvettithurai

பிரசுரிக்கபட்ட திகதி: 09/04/2014 (புதன்கிழமை)

BLUES FOUNDATION FOR BETTER FUTURE

VALVETTITHURAI

Introduction

It is a known fact that many VVT people always dream about the welfare of VVT and its people. Whenever they meet in a group, they discuss about the current situation, the past glory and how we can work towards a better future. As a result of these discussions there had been some efforts which were successful to some extent. But these efforts had been piece-wise and we have so far failed to build a strong platform to utilize the funds, expertise and the hard work to the maximum level. For a variety of reasons, we have not yet mobilized a large number of potential donors and have not embarked on planned and sustainable youth development program.

Currently the state of affairs in VVT can be improved tremendously. It is a sleeping town. It needs to be woken up and guided in the direction of progress. As a start we want to concentrate on the development of the children. With more input and support from members we will be able to address various other aspects with respect to the future of VVT.

We propose to start a charitable organization known as  'BLUES FOUNDATION FOR BETTER FUTURE'  with membership.

People who are keen to become ordinary members will need to pay Rs 100,000/= per year. While we understand and appreciate this is not a small sum, the idea is to attract  people who are   motivated and keen to give back to VVT. These people will be given the responsibility of running the Foundation. The Foundation is also keen to attract persons who have the time and motivation but may not have the financial means to become ordinary members.

Although the information about the Foundation will be widely circulated, no undue pressure will be applied on anyone to become a member. We request people to become members on their own without waiting to be approached.

We expect many  overseas people to join as members.

There will be two kinds of people associated with the Foundation.

          (i)  Donors  : These people are the backbones of the Foundation. They contribute money, time and energy to run the place, and 

       (ii) Beneficiaries: These people directly receive benefits such as educational items, sporting items, educational tours and nutritional foods.

Together, they will work harmoniously to achieve the objectives of the Foundation.
