A Letter From Project Mala

Dear ORIA Members,

As you will know ORIA has supported Project Mala’s work for many years with the help of contributions from you the members.

I have a very brief synopsis of the schools most recent efforts linked to our website and much more can be seen at their web site www.projectmala.org/.

Project Mala was founded in 1989 with just one school in Guria. This effort has been expanded to ten schools, the most recent being the establishment of a secondary education class to enable the brightest children to reach their full potential.

I am writing to ask you to consider supporting the work of Project Mala by sponsoring a child directly in their schools or by making a donation which will go towards providing education for the very underprivileged children in the carpet belt of Uttar Pradesh, India.

Project Mala has now started a label program for importers to help their efforts, and I would ask you to consider ordering say 100 of these labels at $1 each which could then be attached to your rugs to demonstrate your support of the educational effort.

If you would like to discuss this letter  or hear more about the work of Project Mala please contact Neville Platt by email at  neville@projectmala.us or at (301) 879 9772.

A small effort can make a big difference for these children.

With kind regards,

Neville Platt and Robin Garland
