Introduction

My Mission: Be a Role Model in Family and Society by Uplifting and Empowering others to make their Lives Happy in the context of Love and Joy.


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.

Future: I would like to take up this concept in a Bigger way Nationwide that anyone can sponsor any Talented Poor student at any place and their detials (both sponsorer and sponsoree) will be puplished in our website coming shortly. It is like sowing an education seed. Sponsorer will be a root and the sponsoree will be the branches of the tree. All sponsorers can pay fees money directly to the respective colleges and miscelleous expenses to students.

After 1st year IPE I knew the importance of IIT, AIEEE and EAMET and started special preparation for the EAMcet along with the 2nd year IPE. Disappointed with my marks in 2nd year. I am not satisfied. After the 2nd year I sincerely prepared for the AIEEE and EAMCET. But due to lack of sufficient material and coaching, I couldn't write AIEEE.
