Objective: UPLIFT TALENTED POOR STUDENTS AND SPONSORSHIP FOR ENGINEERING EDUCATION
Background: One fine morning I had a thought last year to sponsor talented poor for Engineering education for 4 yrs. We worked on financial aspect and it costs Rs2 lakhs per student for 4 years with minimum requirements.
Action: Last year(2007) we have identified 4 such students from our village Salur in Andhra Pradesh and started sponsoring them and paid fees for all 4 of them. I am sponsoring for 2 students and likeminded friends sponsoring another 2 students. (So our commitment for these students is Rs.8 lakhs for next 4 yrs)
Selection Criteria: Students who have achieved more than 90% in both 10th class and intermediate with a financial income of less than 25,000 per annum and a networth not more than 2 lakhs.
Students Commitment:
1) Once they complete engineering and get a job they should sponsor 2 more students of talented poor. (Moral commitment in writing. No legal binding)
2) All students should score more than 90% every year in their academics to get continous sponsorship. If the school highest score is less than 90%, Students should be in top 3 in the college or their group.
Note: Idea is to make them responsible students and do good in their academics. My role to motivate students continously by phone/emails/letters and in person in addition to sponship of my commitment.
Future: We want to take up this concept in a larger scale thru website-Nationwide that anyone can sponsor anystudent at any place and their detials (both sponsor and sponsoree) will be provided in the website. It is like sowing a seed. Sponsor will be seed as a root and the sponsoree will be the plant/branches of tree.

Objective: UPLIFT TALENTED POOR AND SPONSORSHIP FOR 4 YEARS ENGINEERING EDUCATION. EVERY SUCCESSFUL STUDENT SHOULD SPONSOR 2 MORE STUDENTS UPON GETTING A GOOD JOB - TO MAKE A STRONG CHAIN.
Background: When I was studying MBA in Pune in 1989, there were lot of talented poor students who could not afford to study for higher studies and settled for middle class life. I used to think that why every educated person can sponsor one talented poor student so that country becomes a better place to live. My subconcious mind still working on that thought and the below action is the result of that.
Action: Last year(2007) we have done a detailed study and identified 4 Talented Poor students from our village Salur in Andhra Pradesh to make a begining, with the help of few collegues, friends and started sponsoring them. I have committed for 2 students and my friends in Singapore Tondapi Harnath, Repaka Ravikiran have joined with me. (So our commitment for these students is Rs.8 lakhs (Approx.) for next 4 yrs).
Selection Criteria:
TALENT: Students who have achieved an average 90% in both 10th class and Intermediate (+2)
POOR: Family income of less than 25,000 per annum and a networth not more than 2 lakhs.
Students Commitment:
1) Once they complete engineering and get a job they should sponsor 2 more students of talented poor and this chain should continue throughout the country (Moral commitment in writing. No legal binding on students)
2) All students who get sponsorship should score more than 90% every year in their academics to get continous sponsorship. If the college highest score is less than 90%, students should be in top 3 in the college or their class.
Note: Idea is to make them responsible students and do good in their academics and get a respectable job on their own. Individual review will be done yearly. My role is to motivate students continously by phone/emails/letters and in person wherever possible.
