Quite like this page, YATN has seen a period of dormancy now. Our migrant labourer community have long since shifted out, and although we still support a few of the financially, there is little else we contribute on those lines. Over a few recent meetings, YATN has decided to take up a new mission, a new direction - in order to revive it's activities.
Like one of our founders once wrote: There are many skeptic enthusiasts unaware of many things happening around them. This blog is also to invite them by telling what we do. No doubt, the blog may seem boastful, but let me assure you that it is written in good faith, keeping the larger community in mind.
Our plans for the near future:
1. We plan to increase the number of students who we support financially in Sohana and Chilla to around 15 students - for which we will need to raise funds aggressively.
2. We're currently organising a summer camp - a fun-filled vacation experience for the kids - in the last week of June.
3. We're working to organise the ladies of the Housekeeping staff into a cooperative society. This one is a long story and warrants an individual post dedicated to it. Will post details shortly.
