-- | Add your name to the CLEAN GOA INITIATIVE | || | by visiting this link and following the instructions therein | || | http://shire.symonds.net/pipermail/goanet/2005-October/033926.html | -- The Board of Directors of Goa Sudharop would like to thank the donor family who, in the last three years, has donated through Goa Sudharop approximately US $10,000 (approx. 4.4 lakhs) towards the St. Vincent's High School, Pune Goan Trust Fund for the higher education of Goans in medicine or engineering. The trust fund has been established since the mid-1980's. The annual scholarship has funded many poor Goan students for 5 to 7 years each to help pay their fees and books while earning a degree in engineering or medicine. The family wishes to remain anonymous. Sincerely, Goa Sudharop World G.O.A.N. network

See her message below. Goa Sudharop World G.O.A.N. network Thanks to YOU, I've made it! This time tomorrow, I'll be sitting on a plane (hopefully not too air sick) on my way to Ireland. Thinking about the generosity of each and everyone of you who took the time out to donate, encourage, or even chat with me about doing such a thing! It will be quite a thrill to experience Dublin in such an event - the excitement, the people, not the mention the chaos! As I push through those 26.2 miles, I'll keep you all in mind. It was a difficult task not only to train during these past six months, but to also fundraise such a large amount of money. Thanks you to all, I've raised $4,070!! I am so proud to know each any every one of you because in one or another, you've made this possible for me. Regards, Sabrina :) Runner #1044 !

This first attempt to bring Goans and Goan organizations together in common cause has exceeded our expecations. While the process will take time, we thank you for your understanding and patience in this unique venture.

Dear all Within minutes of the launch of the World G.O.A.N. network (a network of Goan Organizations, Associations, and NGO's/non-profits in the worldwide Goan community), Mr. Gaspar Almeida (of Goa World and Gulf-Goans D-list fame) was the first person to sign up. He has consistently supported Goans, Goan causes, Goa Sudharop and we thank him for his support of the World G.O.A.N. Network. Some of the others who were among the first few to sign up included many organizations and individuals, including the remarkable young Constantino Xavier, the South Goa Public Interest Action group, and many more. A complete list will be published in due course. In the meantime, a special thanks to all for their unprecedented support as Goans unite to move forward.

[Goanet] World G.O.A.N. network - update by Goa Sudharop
Dear all, The response to our launch of the World G.O.A.N. Network has been overwhelming. We did not anticipate such a quick, positive, enthusiastic response from Goans and Goan organizations all over the world. You have shown that Goans can come together and work together for a common cause. We intend to reply to each of you after things settle down a bit and definite plans fall into place. Please forgive any delay on our part. If you have not signed up, please do - see announcement below. Thank you for your support. Sincerely, Melanie Moniz, [EMAIL PROTECTED] * Original Announcement The Board of Directors of Goa Sudharop is pleased to announce the launch of a new worldwide Goan Network group to be called World G.O.A.N., to publicise, benefit, and support the events and projects of Goan organizations and associations around the world. G.O.A.N. stands for Goan Organizations, Associations and NGO's/Non-Profits. To become part of this exciting new Goan network, simply email us at [EMAIL PROTECTED] and tell us about your activities and events. There is no membership or fee or application to enroll and you do not have to be a registered Goan organization, association or NGO/non-profit to be a participant in this network. Institutions, d-lists and individuals who work to promote Goa and Goans are also welcome to join. You and your group will continue to maintain your autonomy and independence and nothing about your organization needs to change in the way you function. In due course we hope to have a website for such a worldwide Goan Network group, bringing together the worldwide Goan community to help foster progress, unity, development of Goa and Goans. Organizations, associations, NGO's/non-profits, individuals will benefit by being able to tap into Goa Sudharop's resources. Goa Sudharop may also decide to financially contribute through its World G.O.A.N. Development Fund to your projects if they fall within our aims and objectives of the betterment of Goa and Goans worldwide. In certain cases when it makes sense, the worldwide Goan community can work together on a common project and cause. Groups/individuals have already shown interest and we look forward to all worldwide Goan organizations, associations, NGO's, non-profits, d-lists, institutions, individuals to participate and enroll regardless of their own mission and aims. There is no cost to enroll and no requirements, other than your love for Goa and Goans and a desire to build a strong worldwide Goan community and help one another. Please support this worthy cause of bringing Goans together. Further details to follow. Sincerely, Board of Directors of Goa Sudharop [EMAIL PROTECTED]
