<div><font face="Arial" size="2"><span>There were about 16 of them . All young folks from different software and non software related jobs in blr.</span></font></div>
<div><font face="Arial" size="2"><span></span></font> </div>
<div><font face="Arial" size="2"><span>They went around collecting money and raising awareness on the situation in bihar. </span></font></div>
<div><font face="Arial" size="2"><span></span></font> </div>
<div><font face="Arial" size="2"><span>Today they collected about 9000 Rs. Now all these 16 volunteers are charged up and want to work more. </span></font></div>
<div><font face="Arial" size="2"><span></span></font> </div>
<div><font face="Arial" size="2"><span>They are willing to collect in apartment complexes and are willing to spare their weekends for the same. </span></font></div>
<div><font face="Arial" size="2"><span></span></font> </div>
<div><font face="Arial" size="2"><span>If any of you are living in apartment complexes and get approval for collection then do let us know. these youngsters will contact you and engage in a collection next weekend. </span></font></div>

<div><font face="Arial" size="2"><span>i personally know some of these folks and the money will be put to good use. </span></font></div>
<div><font face="Arial" size="2"><span></span></font> </div>
<div><font face="Arial" size="2"><span>okay , whats the reason for inspiration : two little girls who were seen selling flowers on brigade road - contributed Rs.10 each and took receipts. </span></font></div>
<div><font face="Arial" size="2"><span></span></font> </div>
<div><font face="Arial" size="2"><span>though online donations and orgn centered efforts can raise more money..there is a sense of dedication and more awareness .. when people work on foot..the old fashioned way ;) </span></font></div>
