My second choice is to pursue a career in engineering, in areas related to medical science and research.
Why do I want to be a CRC ambassador:
I am going to be a freshman in high school this fall and I wanted to reach out and through volunteering activities learn about real life and how I can help. When my mom I learned about about CRC and the CRC Ambassadorship program , I was immediately interested because it gives me an opportunity to be involved in science projects and also volunteering. I checked out the website and I especially like what I read about recycling electronics and also adopting a school and helping kids that want to be in school, but do not have much. I would like to help in any way I can. I also look forward to learning to be a helpful, productive, kind citizen and eventually.

About My Service Project
|
|
This year, I have chosen to help 4 scharities as part of my service project. My goal is to raise $250 for each of the charities/schools for the students in these school can get essential supplies like food, school supplies, clothing, books. Here is what I read in one of the websites of the charities I am supporting and this really stayed in my mind “There is a purpose behind every person's birth. One should utilize his/her knowledge and efforts not only for his/her own growth but also contribute a little for the growth of the deprived ones, by which way one can give real meaning to their birth. Life is short, let us make it meaningful and purposeful. Let us all join and work together to up bring these less fortunate children of the society as good citizens of tomorrow and thus build a strong and peaceful world.”

An unfading hope for orphaned and abadoned children - Balagurukulam
Can you imagine your family abadoning you? My family has been involved in helping the children at Balagurukulam(Chennai) for a while. We know the founder, Mr.Ranjith and have routed several donations to this cause and the children. Children here are from the ages of 6 weeks to 12 years. There are about 80 children here. We all have new clothes whenever we want it. These children always have hand me downs. Sometimes these clothes fit, sometimes they don’t. For the past 2 years, we are able to send money around Deepavali so that Mr.Ranjith is able to buy new clothes for this children to celebrate the festival of lights. It did not cost more than 400$ to provide an entire set of new clothes to these 80 children. That is just an example. They need so much more. To learn more please visit http://balagurukulam.org/helpus.html.
For the hearing Challenged - Sai Mano Sankalp Special School & Voc. Rehab

I love music and performing arts and it is hard for me to imagine what it would be like to not be able to hear the sounds of nature, the wondrous rhythm or music, the soothing sounds of your mother’s lullaby…please find in your hearts to donate to the Sai Mano Sankalp Special School & Voc. Rehab. It is located in Bellampally Dist of Andhra Pradesh. Donations can be made through www.crcfbt.org.

Public School Library – Vijayantha Sr Secondary School
Vijayantha Sr Sec School is a management run school located in Avadi, Chennai. It is the alma mater of my mom. This school’s current state is pretty pathetic. It is a public school and runs on funds from a local Ministry of Defence establishment. But with more people taking private jobs the enrolment and hence revenue is dwindling in this school. There is a lot of need for a lot of amenities and the library is essentially non-existent. Books are the eyes to the world. I am putting together some fundraising to help give this library a much needed facelift and hence the students another chance at exploring the new world. To know more about the school, please visit http://eduraft.com/school/Chennai/Avadi/Vijayantha+Senior+Secondary+School/10467/about_the_school. If you are interested in donating for this public school library, you can donate through www.crcfbt.org. CRCFBT is a US based organization registered under sec 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code. Contributions are tax exempt to the extent allowed by law.
If you are interested in donating for any of the charities I am trying to raise funds for, please contact me at vikiveerni@insight.rr.com and I can provide further details. I am trying to organize multiple events in order to collect funds. Statement of expenses and financial details can be provided through CRCFBT and we will post pictures as we donate and see the effects of our donations.
