Date : November 15, 2008One of my ex-colleagues called me to say that he has a friend who is physically challenged, who has difficulty in talking, walking, writing & what not L. He also added that, he is trying to crack CAT for the past 3 years & needs some motivation as it is D Day the next day, & asked if I can please talk to him. I said “OK”.His friend called me. His voice was shacking, for sometime it was very difficult for me to comprehend, but his emotions, yes I could understand even the unsaid.Whenever he said, 3-4 of us (Physically challenged) prepared together, tears started rolling down . I motivated him to the extend I knew, but to be frank I was motivated looking at his determination.We are nothing infront of these special children rather the GOD’s own kids.After the phone call, I was explaining the same to my Wife & she said what will these special Kids gain by your tears. You can actually help them, if you want. You have been a student , you have been a teacher as well, you know what a student expects from a teacher & I hope you also know to read, what a special Kid expects from his teacher ie PATIENCE…These words have been haunting me since then & now I have come out to implement my toughts…Why not a Free coaching for a Special Kid or an economically weak kid?.Teachers:Now to make my dream come true, I have come to you guys . Puys in Bangalore, who have been good students (toppers in Mocks) , who have good conceptual knowledge, who have the patience, who have the energy & time can be Good teachers in my dream institute. We need 2-3 teachers each for QA-DI-VA. Iam sure, 1-2 guys can’t handle the show as we might have personal commitments.What will you gain as a teacher: Iam sorry to say, you will not get any salary as it is done out of humanity.You will gain the so called feeling called as self satisfaction, a true meaning of why we are here on this planet. When you sleep in the night, your heart is filled with happiness, because you have provided something to a person in need, you have helped a fellow human, who needs some support.These teachers will be personally interviewed by me as there are some people whose intentions are not to help the needy, but just to gain a bullet point in their CV.Students:Initially we are planning to take 4-5 kids to start with. Request you all to help me out in identifying the needy. There may be a kid, whom you feel, if guided properly can get into an IIM. Send their details by PM to me, with your/their contacts details.These kids would be interviewed by me, personally.These special Kids can be economically weak or physically challenged. Initially we are not including the visually challenged kids as we ourselves don’t have the expertise to handle them.Tuition Fees: Your Determination & Love towards CAT/XAT/NMAT/JMET/FMS etc.Others:Puys who want to help, but still cannot due to geographical issues, can help us out with the material softcopy/hardcopy which you feel can help some kid.Iam also talking to one of the leading coaching institutes regarding the premises/material for my special Kids. Hope, they will help us in this noble cause.Incase of any issues, Iam planning to start it from my home..Tentative Starting period: Jan 15, 2009Classes mostly in weekend for 2-3 hours on Saturdays/Sundays…Finally, many people have thought such good things but have fizzled out due to various reasons. I herewith request you all to pray that GOD gives us the power to sustain for a longer period & help as many of his special kids as possible….Lets Spread humanity across….GOD Bless all…
This was my post in Pagalguy.com during early december..
After that day, I tried so many things to reach out my special kids..
By late december Career Launcher accepted our request & they have agreed to provide us with material & space..Lots of people in Pagalguy came in support of this cause, many of them were ready to be come a teacher in my institute & others in other cities were ready to donate the material...
Finally early this the person who was inspiration (who couldnt get calls this year) accepted to be first student..
So we decided to start the institute under CL banner & name it as SPURTI-DESRIRING FOR THE DETAILS....
Today Spurti has taken her first step & this is what I have written in Pagalguy
One of the Best days of my Life...Spurti finally took her first step at 1.45 PMHate, Sriram, Sandya,Madhu, rmbt came to start off the program...The day started with Sumanth cutting the cake, it was a small gathering & we didnt had a big function or so, but it was precided over by Mr.Ajith, GM,CL, south...We all spoke to Sumanth on understanding the issues to be addressed during the coming days...Sumanth gave us his points too & with the difficulties these special kids face..Most of us were moved by these points..Overall it was a feel of satisfaction for all of us..The surprising thing for Sumanth was that I promised him to introduce couple of IIM guys in the days to come & it happened that PHANTHOM (IIMI) was in town & we had an impromtu meet & Sumanth asked lots of questions & Phanthom aka anand answered them happily . He also promised us to get us the contacts of the challenged people who are in IIMI, so that we can get their ideas as wellI personally thank Phanthom,Hate, Sriram, Madhu, rmbt & Sandya for believing in SPURTI & extending their help...Ps: PICs to be uploaded shortly
