Let us think of some fundamental questions. Like why are we born, what do you want to do , when will you be happy ? . Fundamentally everybody wants to be happy during the time frame he lives, its the same desire in me. Now, the next question to answer is when will you be happy ? . Swami Vivekanada in his "Complete Works" says art of hapiness lies in giving give all that you have and dont expect a return, and even if you restarin a day will come when you have to leave all that you possess, so why not give before and live for others. Give and there it ends, share your love not enimity and dont expect a return.. thats some thing I think of and from the same idealism of giving what you have i.e education comes my association with BSBC . Born to serve Backward communities is a social service group with focus on education and employment generation for underprevilaged people from 7th to Undergradute courses. This specific sector is choosen as they are the breadwinners for their families.
My association with BSBC comes from the days it started, way back in 2005 December when four young, dynamic and energitic candidates sitting under the moon light discussed about this idealogy of helping others through education and it was decicded to form a group then and there. I dont know what was considered in me but I was made President and as you might know all of us had a role to start, Vijayendar was the then General Secretary, Srisailam to look after Finance and Chandu was Public Administration Officer. For the past 5 years I was holding the responsibility of President, time and again I tried to hand it over not that I didnt like to work but that new ideas will come and the direction from the group will change, but every body had to settle down professionally in their lifes. Finally I have handed over the reins of BSBC to Satish whoom I think is the right replacement. Now that its all history .. let me tell you what I had tried over the years and what I had learnt from these experiences. There are some people who consider Service as a priority besides themselves, these are the people that you need to enage them in critical works. Not many consider Social Service as passion they are superfically touched and the real challenge is to get such people motivated, by involving them asking them for suggestions, giving them responsibilities and make them reliazie the beauty . There are some who volunteer themselves by giving money. But the concept here is unless untill you follow up second and third sector you will not be able to push the group because for many Social Service is last priority. But, if you are clear in what you want to achive there are always followers for you. Look inside when tumbling down, its because you dont have confidence in it, and hence the group doesnot. Believe strongly, belive in every goal that you set, belive and give a sincere effort and you will be rechieng it..
Keys things that happened duing during those times
- Expanded the group to 45
- Started Technical Society Vikarabad
- Formed the Leadership Team both for BSBC and TS
- Defined a proven methods of handling the 10th and Engineering students - like bi monthly projects for TS and a monthly project for the School children
- Quarterly News Letter
Now that we have proven methods and have great shoulders to share, its high time for BSBC with new LT Team , Proven processes and solid Financial model of contributing 1 % to Nation. This year there are several new initiatives being taken up.. I will keep my continued efforts and will strive to give my best to the idealogy that will live for ever ...
My personal invitation to everyone with such objectives to join the group .
