Hi,
I'm a software professional who has worked in the U.S. for over 25 years and am looking to do volunteer work in India as a way of giving back to society through effective use of my time and money.I found information about your school on the omprakash site and would like to help. I would like to visit personally and learn about the needs of the school. Please let me know if this is of interest and perhaps we can discuss this further.
Best regards,
Sekhar Subramani

Dear Mr.Teron,
We came across your academy through the Omprakash Foundation and are very much interested in acquiring more information about being volunteer teachers in 2010. We currently live in New York and are planning on spending some time in India very soon to work on our art, after reading about your academy, we are very much interested in teaching drawing and painting. We both are artists and designer in New York with teaching experience. We would love to hear back with more information and provide you with more information on our experience.
Look forward to hearing from you.
Best Regards,
Arati and Adam

Hello Uttam,
I was just speaking with Margaret Andrews about you and your school. My name is Anna MacKay, I am one of the two owners of Your Journey, we are a travel company that specializes in small group travel.We are planning on a tour of Assam Meghalaya and the surrounding states. We are just in the planning stages right now and Margaret advised us she was just there. I had the pleasure of being there a few years ago. I travelled to Guwahati, Kazaringa, Shillong and Cherrapunji and fell in love with the area. I unfortunately was only there for a quick trip, it was arranged by the Indian Tourism board to bring in travel people into the area.I would love to have a visit to your school and the surrounding villages included in our trip. I am interested in how you feel this would work and how many people you would be comfortable with visiting the school and the surrounding area. Our biggest size group is usually 16, however for this trip I was thinking 12 may be a better size for the village visit etc.Margaret had suggested 2 days would be good to see the area. We could stay in Guwahati for 3 nights. Take one day to go and visit your school, if you could talk with the group show them around, arrange a talk maybe on the school and the local area. Second day we could go out to the other villages with a pack lunch. We would need a guide to take us and show us around. As much involvement we can get into the area would be great.I am eager to hear your ideas on how this would work and if you have any other suggestions for us for visits in the area. The overall trip would most likely be 16 + days. Again just in the planning stages right now and will be flushing out the itinerary over the next month. I look forward to being in touch with you.
Warm Regards
Anna MacKay

Volunteer Introduction

Uttam,
This email is to introduce you to Lara Akrigg. Lara is interested in volunteering from August to September 2009 for 6 to 8 weeks. Lara is also planning on trying to do some fund raising before she comes and possibly afterward as well for Parijat Academy. I will be working with her on how this can best be done, but she needs to coordinate with you to see if you will be able to host her and work out all the necessary logistics. I will let you figure this out. Also, it might be helpful for Lara's fund raising efforts if you could give her something to focus her fundraising on. Perhaps she could brings some supplies that you want or something else of that sort. Please work this out with Lara, but do let me know if I can be of any help. Also, please respond as soon as possible even if you are unsure of the logistics at this point so that Lara can figure out other plans if this does not work out.
All Best,
Nick
