As you read in my previous blog, the poverty experienced at the Rampora school really touched my heart. Several people responded to my blog post with a willingness to financially support the school. As a result of this Mr.Brooks, Coach Smeltzer and I began brainstorming for ways to provide for the kids. One idea that was presented as an option was to create a box of supplies which would be presented to search respecting school. The cost would include $150 monthly pay, due averaging $3 per child. Overall this would create a budget of $1500 per year for the school supplies. Eventually I would like to support up to four schools. Veer, myself, and all of our supporters will begin with the Rampora school and, hopefully, after one year, be able to support another school.
This project will enable Veer to enhance his mission work in India. The supply Boxes will not only give Veer a chance to expand his influences, but will provide an opportunity to gain the trust needed to spread the Gospel.
Each box will include:
• -2 notebooks per student
• -10 pencils per student
• -pencils sharpeners
• -erasers
• -rulers
• -crayons
To help support this project, go to Faith`s website at http://www.grapevinefaith.com/AboutUs/SpiritualGrowth/India/tabid/452/Default.aspx and click the Donation link located at the bottom of the page. Through Pay Pal, the money will be transferred into Veer`s account so that Veer`s staff can put together the Box. After Veer donates the box to the school, he will take a picture of the kids actually receiving the box, so anyone who donated money will see the positive outcome of their help. The picture will then be posted on the "Team India 2010" blog as soon as possible.
