abhaya Foundation

What effect would a small donation, as small as 100rs, have on a mission where we have to give more than 2 lakhs? The answer to this question: Mission Santosh. So many times I tried to assure my friends that it is not the amount that is important....It is the thought to help someone that is more important....Still the same question is asked innumerable number of times. But, my answer still remains the same. Right from the time I have been assoicated with Abhaya foundation....from Mission Ajay to the about to be concluded Mission Santosh...The answer is still the same. More than 25 people responded to my message to help Santosh. Not everyone gave the same amount. It ranged from 100rs to 5000rs. But what is the final outcome? We achieved what we set out to achieve. With the help of Santosh's friends, college management...we could pool out 2 lakhs. How much do you think his college friends have donated each? They didnot get thousands and thousands of rupees from a sing...

The passion to help others.....The zeal to hang on to that....The wish to do something for the society.... Can these be imbibed forcefully? Can these be provoked without our interest? "I am helping because my friend is helping.....I am donating because it is a cool way of showing others that I care"....Does these really count for empathising with others' feelings? Is there not a gigantic difference between those two perceptions? Are you helping others because you treat it as a duty or you treat it as a compulsion? Sometimes duties become compulsions. But this is different. Without knowing and accepting the feelings of your fellow human beings, does it really count if you are giving money or any other thing to them? Money is not everything. It is fundamental for any organization to run. To help those many cases coming up before us, it plays a vital role. Still, it is not everything. The satisfaction you get when the person whom you have helped in life comes upto yo...

Abhaya wish to take this opportunity to express its gratitude to MAA TV for their telecast on 02.02.2011 in their 'Velugu Veliginchu'. MAA TV program inspired many souls in country. It established a ray of hope in the lives of hundreds of people. Abhaya taking due from 300 calls received post MAA TV program got in touch with all the people and invited them to be there at abhaya on 9th January at Hyderabad. Needs in value may be crossing Rs.50 Lakhs. Donors, supporters and well-wishers are in tens. The resources are in few lakhs. In these scenarios, who is there to empathize with these people who are in need? Not really bothered about the resources, abhaya started a Mission to be on their side during the crises and shared all the possible love and care during 6 hours session and also tried solving their issues with HEART.

A New year has come with New expectations and New responsibilities... Abhaya has welcomed the first day with lots of programs and spent time with people who were in need of moral support to bring-in brightness into their lives. In the first week itself, Abhaya got a huge oppurtunity to put forward our work in front of the whole state through the " Velugu Veliginchu " program of Maa TV . The program was telecast on 2nd Jan 2011. But, the aftermath of this telecast was something that was totally unexpected. More than 250 calls were received seeking help just in the first two days. Not more than 50 calls came from people who were willing to donate or willing to volunteer for joining hands with Abhaya to do the good work. So, Why is this exponential difference? Even as I am writing this, I know there must be someone, somewhere who have called us and about to meet us this sunday....silently thinking about how much amount can abhaya give them....o...

abhaya started the day with LOVE on very first day of New Year'11... wish you be part of such good work going forward.
