Re: [India_Vision_2020] Our partner NGO gets second prize at global level for best practices

Dear Srinivasan,

Our hat is going to look like the Red Indian hat with so many feathers. I admire and congratulate Suyam and other members of this group.
I am glad I am part of this group.

Regards,

dear friends
 
Suyam Charitable Trust, is running a montessori school at Chennnai to provide education to around 260 poor children.  More than 50 percent of these children are 'street children', who do not have any support.    The trust was started by young college students Uma and Muthuraman in 1999 and with the support of many donors, friends, students, they are able to sustain their project. Suyam runs 'Siragu Montessori School' to educate these unfortunate children.
 
Akzo Nobel is a Netherlands based leading paint company.  Their CSR initiatives are ranked No 2 in the world.  They support around 550 projects world over in 45 countries with 2500 volunteers.  Every year, they select 15 projects across the globe for the Best Practices.  Again, the volunteers vote and select three best projects (out of this 15).  These 3 projects get cash awards to imprve the infrastructure.
 
Siragu Montessori School has been selected by them for the second prize.  Last week, Senior Directors from Netherlands visited Chennai to present the cash awards of EUR 20000 to Suyam. 
 
It may be recalled that we had carried an article in Indian Vision site  and India Vision group (both maintained and moderated by Prime Point Foundation) about them five years back as "Unsung Heroes".  Suyam is also a partner organisation with India Vision Group.
 
We are proud that one of our partner organisations has been recognised internationally.  Please read the report in the following link: Let us all congratulate Suyam for bringing glory and pride to India.
