Going to School on Wheels

Haider goes to school in his wheelchair. Every morning, Haider's friends arrive at his house 30 minutes before school begins. Deciding who gets to push Haider today, they tip the wheelchair back onto its two big black wheels and are away. Haider lives one kilometre away from Raspunja Free Primary School. One kilometre was a long way for Haider without wheels. In fact, one kilometre was so far that Haider didn't go to school until he was given a wheelchair. Now he wheels wherever the boys take him, and they take him everywhere

hats off 2 d kiddo.. n his friends! salute ya!

Education for all

Hats off! I love dis ad!:)

The power of Mobile telephony to address the socially relevant theme of education.The thought-provoking ad campaign has Abhishek Bachchan playing the head of an educational institution. When challenged by the traditional, physically bound classroom methodology that prevents reaching out to many more who are in need of education, he uses mobile telephony to overcome the barrier.

Help puppy's and who to contact for hurt animals on the road-

Friendicoes is as usual under financial strain due to a jump in the dog population at the shelter.The 30 odd puppies at friendicoes could do with another meal.The plan is to supplement their diet with boiled eggs.A crate of 30 eggs costs 70 rupees,if any of you want to sponsor a crate do let me know.We want to make this a regular affair. So help out.


p.s: there are alot of abandoned dogs looking for homes.So if you're looking to adopt,drop by.
