An eventful year
Over the last twelve months, did an awful lot! We were given custody of five other children, the family consists Ashraya since four girls, five boys, a foster mother and six students from around the world, establish the board of the organization and in turn take care of the children. In June 2006 we started a new project called "Outreach" and now some twenty other children provide them with food, clothing and dressings. Given these children go to school, get tutoring from us and will be supervised by a doctor. We received our initiative of eleven awards, including first prize as "Volunteer of the Year 2006" by the Austrian Ministry of Social Affairs. During the year we got a non-profit in India visit by two film crews (from Japan and Canada), fourteen volunteers, several Indian schools, and four representatives can organizations.
Our children changed the school (and now go to an English School), got to dodge ball games closed, countless new friends and grow together as a family. Some of them signed up in football training or drum hours. They celebrated Indian, American, European and even Japanese festivals. Currently they are preparing for Christmas and have every day new questions, for example, was whether the Santa Claus already at birth of Santa Claus and how old is he exactly is. Overall, the children lost in the last fourteen years, milk teeth, the tooth fairy was extremely busy!
Our outreach project
Slumfamilien it can often not afford to send their children to school. Instead, the children beg in the streets to contribute to family income. We finance our outreach to school children, clothing and medical attention. You will also receive a hot meal three times a week can take a shower, play and receive tutoring. We want to extend the project even by 25 children when we have had great success!
AIC Worldwide
The six AIC Vorstandsmiglieder come from six different countries: Britain, China, Japan, Austria, India and the U.S.. We hold weekly video conferences via the Internet to more about the current state of affairs in India are up to date and to take common decisions. In the summer of 2006 we all met in India and spent some time with the children.
We have divided our responsibilities as board members and include finance, administrative or office management responsibility. As all of us are students, we are on donations dependent. Each of us collect donations in their home country.
We take our role as "foster parents" very seriously and we are aware of our responsibility. The child care is out plans for the next few years and each of us knows when we have the next "child service" in India.
