Hi ,
This year I am running the Airtel Delhi Marathon on the 1st of November aspart of the Dream Team. I am raising funds for the following projects
1. Score Foundation's Scholarship Fund for under privileged Blind studentswho would like to pursue higher studies. The fund will support tuition fees,hostel fees, purchase of assistive technologies, computers and so on. There are a number of students who approach us from different parts of the country with request for financial help.
2. Score Foundation's Eyeway Talking Book Production Service. This is aneffort to make available reading material to blind children, students andprofessionals. We sign up with publishers to convert there print material into audio books. Presently, we have a number of volunteers who record withus.
3. Score Foundation is launching a cricket for development programme. The plan is to use cricket as a tool in Community Based Rehabilitation by drawing blind children out of homes and coaching them and providing them with a platform at the community level to play the game they love anddemonstrate their ability. I would urge you to please support this effort by making a contribution towards any of the above projects. Your cheques should be drawn in favour of "Concern India Foundation" and sent to me at George Abraham
