Five lessons..

Submitted by ankita on
Five (5) lessons to make you think about the way we treat people. 1 - First Important Lesson - Cleaning Lady. During my second month of college, our professor gave us a pop quiz. I was a conscientious student and had breezed through the questions until I read the last one:
"What is the first name of the woman who cleans the school?"
Surely this was some kind of joke. I had seen the cleaning woman several times. She was tall,dark-haired and in her 50s, but how would I know her name?

I am new to Sankalp and Bangalore as well. Knowing much about me in this blog won't matter.What would matter is ki hamara kya sankalp hai??Bangalore mein what I have seen is a majority of software engineers who work from monday to friday and sleep or roam about in MG/Brigade road on week ends.Even I do the same.

The Beginning

While enjoying a cup of tea on the night of 22nd May, 2003 a group of students from MSRIT came across a person who was looking for blood donors. It was very late at night and he was literally begging any and everyone he found. These student's looked into the matter and found out that a patient from outside Bangalore was waiting for blood to be given to him since past 5 hours.

About Volunteers

A fairly dedicated set of individuals who are striving to bring in a Revolution are who we have as Sankalp Volunteers. All the volunteers are common students and working professionals that each one of us can relate to. We are made of the same fabric as you. The difference is only this: we are trying to change ourselves into individuals who act on their wishes, have the courage of convictions and who can face lot of opposition and problems and get their job done. We are a team that works for a cause which is dear to us.

Should I call them My experiments with the truth?

Submitted by rajat on
About three years back I started on a journey. It was a journey whose destination is still not known. I started working for Sankalp. Past three years in my life have been witnessing a constant struggle with inertia.
 
Not only have I been motivating myself to some extent but also trying to motivate others into breaking free. Truly, as i look back, I don't know how successful or unsuccessful I have been. I have always had faith in change for the better.
