Wow! A site that focuses on water issues in India. It brings together solutions pursued by people around India to tackle water related problems. One of the sections has interesting news items on rain water harvesting.
There are lot of interesting case studies too go through.

Sattva
Nice e-magazine on social work going on in Bangalore.
The interview with the 21 yr old Nitin Rao was particularly interesting.
This issue of the magazine also enlists what kind of things you can do if you have some time to devote to Social Work. And not to forget, i absolutely loved its design and the use of colors. A must see :)

Raising money
One of the ideas to fund a initiative could be committing the newspaper at our home to a cause.
Will amount to Rs. 15 per month for one newspaper.
If even able to mobilize 50 people to do so, it amounts to Rs. 750 per month.
A pretty good amount to give to charity or to use it ourselves for some charitable uses.
Same can be done with beer and whiskey bottles ;)

Sing a Chorus
For sometime now have been thinking of doing something for people in need...
Don't know how to start, the lazy guy that i am.
So to kick off I thought i'll atleast start a blog where i can gather thoughts : mine as well as those of other, a place for missions that inspire, articles that educate and movement in past and present that have brought about changes in inspiring ways :)
