Hi Eric, Thanks so much for your message. The school in Ponda is the Lokvishwas Pratishthan. I have given the address in my previous message but if you like I can send it again. Please send the cheque or bank draft in the name of the school, Lokvishwas Pratishthan and you may send it with a letter directly to the attention of the managing trustee who I have mentioned in my earlier message. Let me know if you need any more details.
I am sure the school will be much pleased to receive your assistance. George Pinto and others please also help.
