Welcome to Book Distribution Drive 2012

We are back with the book distribution drive for 2012. Please contact us for more details.

June - Search of schools in rural Bangalore

Its time for book distribution in the schools. We started different activities like Visiting schools, Collecting information, shortlisting the schools based on the need of the kids, budget discussions. Finally our volunteers did a wonderful job on collecting the information about 25 schools, out of which 23 schools are in need of books. We collected the class wise information and the number of note books that are necessary for each kid.

  Out of these 23, only 5 of them are old schools which we have visited before.18 new schools have been identified and this year the plan is to cover 1200+ kids. We are crossing the magical number of 1000 kids which we have been dreaming from the last couple of years. Now we have the target before us. We started searching for books. When we are trying to take the quotes from different dealers about the note books as we need 5000+ note books, we met few folks from Class mate(ITC) who really helped us in finalizing things. We dont want to compromise on the quality of books & stationary which we want to give the kids.So this year we are planning to get 80% of the books and stationary from Class mate. Even though its an extra bit of burden in terms of funding, we decided not to compromise and give them the best quality.


Thanks to the volunteers for all your efforts in doing the back ground work.

Few Dreams @ 4 years - May 1st 2012

Few Dreams is 4 years young now.

Could not celebrate any event as all the schools are having holidays during May. But happy to say that few of our volunteers started volunteering for Make a wish foundation celebrating the 4th anniversary of few dreams and we are helping them in the areas of Wish Identification, Wish fulfillment and contributions to fulfill the wishes. We wanted to continue the help which we are doing to Make a wish and at the same time want to expand our relation with Make a wish.

Congrats to all the wonderful people who supported us in this beautiful journey of 4 years.

Happy New Year 2012

Hello all,

Few Dreams was started with a Vision of bringing basic educational needs to the deserving and under privileged children.

Since then, over the years, with the support from few close friends, enthusiasts and well wishers, the cause and the drive to support the society has just got bigger. This year passing by has been very special for Few Dreams and yet there is so much to do and look forward to. Here is a quick snapshot of how the year has been for us

We are on FaceBook : Mid Year on 16th of July at 10.42am, Few Dreams was on Facebook. This was in line with the plan of getting more visibility, support and building awareness on the on the inspiration and theme behind Few Dreams. We already have over a 50 fan followers since then and counting. Going ahead, there is a lot planned so keep following us on FB !

Adopt a child (Education) : In our continuous effort to support the educational needs for children who are in need, we sponsored the complete educational cost of 3 girls for their two years of higher secondary education. Our aim is to helping children learn and education which will help them lead to a better and sustainable life.

Supported the Learning Process (Books sponsored for 150+ students) - Poverty we believe is not much related to hunger but its a consequence of being uneducated thus making the children in capable of coping up with problems in the life related to their social or financial status. In an effort of help the underprivileged kids in understanding the value of the learning process, Few dreams visited a couple of schools this year. Lessons and guided classes were conducted by Few Dream members and volunteers. We sponsored books and educational needs for over 150+ children in 2 Government schools.

Celebrated Life with Kids ! - The timing could not have been any better to celebrate with Children - The day was Nov - 14th Children's Day and Jan 26th - Republic Day. The Few Dreams team visited government schools across electronic city. The Team conducted drawing competitions for kids across different age categories and also awarded prizes to the the most outstanding in each category. To have it fair, the team distributed chocolates, cakes, goodies and stationary to almost all the kids across these schools. To bring about a smile and a change in someones's life always feels special. If every you want to experience life at its best, just join us and spend a day with the Kids. You will know when we mean.

New Members joined the Wave - This year, we have added a lot more members and supporters who share the common cause.Please come and join us if you want to make a difference.

Lastly, all this would not have been possible without the extended support, contributions and well wishes from each one of you who are a part of the Few Dreams Family. Thanks for being there and helping us make a change and build a better future, a better India !

Have a wonderful year Ahead and thanks for all the support !
