Subject: [unnatisgbstrust] PlacementDear Mr. Ramesh,Thanks for your message, I shall certainly spread the word around for placement and new candidates. By the way do you have a soft copy version of brief CV of the fourth batch candidates-esp. the retail trainees so that it would be easier for me to approach my contacts for placement.Kind regards,Raghavan Krishnan----- Original Message -----From: UNNATITo: unnatisgbstrustSent: Monday, December 27, 2004 10:05 AMSubject: [unnatisgbstrust] First message to the yahoo group of 164 persons.docDear Well Wishers and the members of the core UNNATI Team,
Happy Christmas and happy New Year
Till recently we were sending periodical updates of UNNATI project to the members of Core UNNATI Team using outlook express. It was a little time consuming and cumbersome and we could communicate with only a limited number of persons.
We have now created a Yahoo Group called unnatisgbstrust through which we can send the updates to all our well wishers and core members of UNNATI Team easily at one go.Moreover the members also can send messages and there are lot of useful features in the Yahoo group.
As many of you know, we have already completed three batches and trained 80 students and placed them also in suitable organizations. Thus we have already made a difference in the lives of eighty families and also have created a ripple in their respective neighbourhood.
We are now in the midst of the fourth batch with 25 students. The classes started from November 2004 and we are likely to complete the training by the third week of Jan2005.
We would request you to help us in the following:
- Be on the lookout of suitable placements for the Tailoring students in Garment Factories and for the Retail Sales students in Retail Chains / small enterprises/establishments and inform us so that we can contact the prospective employers.
- Try to help us in getting suitable candidates for the next batch likely to start from March 2005.We select the youth from the poor sections of society, age 18 to 21 and SSLC passed or failed. For the tailoring vocation we select only ladies and for Retail Sales both gents &ladies. Children of servants/Drivers/Watchmen and other deserving students from your neighbourhood. You may advise the children or their parents to get in touch with us.
- Try to help us in our financial requirements .As the donations to UNNATI project of SGBS Trust are exempted to the extent of 100% under Sec35AC/Sec 80GGA(Cheques to be drawn in favour of SGBS Trust) your contributions will help in Tax Planning.
- Try to persuade your friends/relatives/acquaintances to contribute to the UNNATI project. If E Mail Ids are given to us we will send our appeal to them.
- If any of your friends/relatives/acquaintances could contribute their time in teaching the students you may inform us and also request them to contact us.
You may be aware that the 7th Year Shardotsav was celebrated in a grand manner from 4th Dec to 7th Dec 2004.
The monthly musical concerts are also conducted every month.
Weekly Bhajans are also going on.
The Aradana of Thyagaraja and Purandaradasa will be held in February 2005 as usual.
Thanks.
