How We Celebrated Our 72nd Independence Day!

Our motorcycle club UBM - United Bikers of Mangalore on the occasion of the Indian Independence day decided to donate funds to a local school. Everyone rode on their motorcycles but unfortunately I had to sit this one out as I'm unable to ride just yet.

I've made a donation towards the cause but couldn't attend it due to some reasons.

ST. JOSEPH THE WORKERS HIGHER PRIMARY SCHOOL VAMANJOOR was established in 1986 and it is managed by the Pvt. Aided. It is located in Urban area. It is located in MANGALURU SOUTH block of DAKSHINA KANNADA district of Karnataka. The school consists of Grades from 1 to 7. The school is Co-educational and it doesn't have an attached pre-primary section. The school is N/A in nature and is not using school building as a shift-school. Kannada is the medium of instructions in this school. This school is approachable by all weather road. In this school academic session starts in April.

The school has Rented building. It has got 7 classrooms for instructional purposes. All the classrooms are in good condition. It has 2 other rooms for non-teaching activities. The school has a separate room for Head master/Teacher. The school has Pucca But Broken boundary wall. The school has have electric connection. The source of Drinking Water in the school is Well and it is functional. The school has 3 boys toilet and it is functional. and 4 girls toilet and it is functional. The school has a playground. The school has a library and has 2043 books in its library. The school does not need ramp for disabled children to access classrooms.

The school has no computers for teaching and learning purposes The school is not having a computer aided learning lab. The school is Provided and Prepared in School Premises providing mid-day meal.

The school is missing out on a computer so they can teach their children how to use the computer. I've got a desktop computer that's been unused for a long time and I've decided to give that away. But for starters our club has donated some funds they can use in the interim.

My desktop is a bit old but I had spent a lot of money on it and it had very good hardware. It needs a new hard drive and everything needs to be checked out that's all. But I reckon it won't be expensive to fix it up. These are the times I wish the crypto-market wasn't in the dumpster so I could actually do more.

Anywho, I'm going to be traveling for another round of Visa appointment and some meetings I have lined up in Bangalore city over the next few days. @varunpinto and I will be getting it sorted out once I am back in town. I also have few other components lying around which is good enough to get them started. Once they can get someone to teach computers to the kids I'm sure there's more we can do for them.

But on a personal note, I didn't have the best of days though, it was raining like hell today and I slipped and fell down a few stairs as the staircase was all wet and I was carrying down a suitcase and hurt myself a bit. I also stayed back home as I was generally feeling under the weather in the first half and had to prep my documents for my visa appointment.

But on the bright side I watched an amazing movie "Gold" tonight which was about India's first Olympic Gold medal in Hockey in 1948. Felt kinda inspired to come back home and get my thoughts out.

August 15th is our Independence day. It was our 72nd Independence Day this time. I hope that the people from my country continue extending help to one another and grow together in the years to come!

Happy Independence Day everyone! Jai Hind!
