Reminiscence of the Second Meeting of @tfcnepal #Meeting2 #Minuting

Date: 07^th May , 2011

We are very much excited by the overwhelming presence and support for us, which we noticed on the meeting held today at Bhrikurtimandap. Despite the change in the scheduled meeting in late hours (was preponded than scheduled), we were surprised to see most of our members, who managed to be there just exactly on time at the venue which proved we are really very eager to change the so called Nepali trend. We praise your sanity and eagerness to help people to bring smile on their faces.

The meeting included basically the following agendas:

1) Gathering for memebers' recognation ( a friendly off-web environment)

2) Describing our motives and discussions on our efforts so far. 

3) Sharing ideas on the orphanage/elderly homes around our community where we could extend our helping hands in the forthcoming missions.

4)  Discussing on the account summary of the funds collected and expensed till now.

5) Fund Collection from members.

After the discussions on the agendas, we are excited with the increasing presence of enthusiastic members to help the underprivileged groups around our surroundings. We discussed on the #Mission1 which we offered our donations we collected to Pabitra Samaj Sewa (#PSS) Nepal on 23^rd April, 2011. We concluded that our first ever mission was a grand success, we were certainly able to bring smile on the faces.  

We also asked #members to locate and  identify the real needy organisations or people contributing their lives for the betterment of the deprived groups. And, we firmly suggest you all #members to share ideas of such orphanage/elderly homes around your community, if may be able to extend our helping hands to them in the missions to come.

As the financial part plays a key role for the better running of any organisations/body, thus being a loose group, we shared all the true financial statements of @tfcnepal yet till May 6, 2011 for clarifications. You can see the financial data here.

We were able to collect NRs 8,800.00 today at the venue. You can see the donors' list here. We are very much thankful to all the donor members for their enthusiasm and support. Further financial records shall be produced in the meetings yet to come.

Since, there was a non-political youth initiated programme to raise the voices to warn the constitution assembly's members to produce the constitution in the allocated time, we then decided to rush towards #Maitighar to unite our voices on the same. We reached there with full excitements to support the cause, we sang slogans 'We want सम्बिधान'. We discussed there with the CA member Sunilbabu Panta about the ongoing political hindrances to oppose the constitution making, and the better ways to overcome the ongoing halts. We were extremely satisfied being a part of the programme organised by #nepalunites. Overall we really had a great day and returned with bright smiles on our faces.

First Programme of @tfcnepal at #PSS Nepal #Mission1

Pabitra Samaj Sewa (#PSS) Nepal, as the name suggests, is one of those holy service organisations in Nepal working solely for the welfare of the unprivileged/deprived groups of children and Elderly Citizens of Nepal. Dikchhya Chapagain, founder of #PSS Nepal ,an unmarried attractive youth holds the proud title of a successful Mom for her great devotion and dedication towards the continuous care and educating the orphans from different communities. It is merely a belief as general presume that an unmarried, beautiful lady with all her necessities being fulfilled, can act as a mother of several deprived and under privileged children around the community. Dikchhya holds the position of the same and has been a model being a Sincere human being committed only for the upliftment of the lifestyles and brightening the futures of unfortunate children. 

A preliminary visit to Pabitra Sewa Samaj (PSS) Nepal, Basundhara

For the #tfcnepal first donation, we were in search of a destination where the amount we collected from our tweet counts could be a help to the needy ones/deprived groups or the orphanage /elderly homes around Kathmandu Valley. We the members of @tfcnepal had a preliminary survey of Pabitra Sewa Samaj(PSS) Nepal, located at Basundhara near Triyog School. We were there to know their needs and whether our motto matches the support we were planing for or not. Whom We met was Ms Dikchhya Chapagai , Chairman/Founder of PSS. A young and dedicated Woman whose life has been devoted to maintain the Fates of various street children from various categories.

There were 22 members altogether being fed and educated by PSS. Dikchhya has been working in this field since her childhood. She explains, the PSS has been running in the school building donated by a Public School nearby and else nothing governmental approches has been heard so far, but the personal helps are the major source of economy to feed those deprived group of children. She further explains, "I have a United States' Visa posted on my Passport but from the moment I wake up till I go to bed, I don't have any other intensions behind uplifting the lifestyles of those children and handing over them their bright future. Nothing else matters but she is fully concerned with the continuous support to aid happiness to the faces of those children.

Children there have common surnames and DOB, we heard everyone there being called by different names but the common surnames. For this she explains, all these my children are sons and daughters of the holy land Nepal, so I basically call them all with their common surnames Nepal. And regarding DOB, she says, since a day in a year could be a momento in every childrens' life, I explain them with their birth dates as Baisakh 01 and celebrate birthdays every year.  Further she tells, Seeing children from deprived groups and communities I couldn't resist their situations and collected them from streets to this orphanage home and give them a new identity for their bright future. This PSS is now under the hands of personal donors and we collect whatever donated by them and use up as the daily use materials.

Amazing to know but all the 21 children (1 elderly granny) living under the shades of PSS were distinction holders and marks above 90% :O (quite impressive). We asked them with their motto in life, the answers we got from most of them was a Social Worker, besides Doctor, Model, Singer and Dancer. See them dancing for usDancers  The nearby governmental school where they study has privileged them with a bit schoolarship programmes but they are not having their studies at free of cost. Dikchhya said ' for the previous year, I got a donor who donated the sum of money for whole year to all the students and I am hopeful I'll get one this year too.' The children were worried about the academic sessions would start very soon and we lack proper books to read and copies to write. We explained, May be we can be a help this time..... Dikchhya smiles :)

We further asked, what are your requirements, if we could meet your demands that are very much essential. She explained, We have a stock of Paddy to feed but we lack Edible oil, Biscuits, Noodles, Beaten Rice, Kitchen Utensils (plates, spoons, cups), Slippers, Toothpastes, Toothbrushes, Stationaries (Copies, Pencils, Erasers, Sharpeners), Soaps (Bathing, Cleaning) thats all. Personally @friendycalls donated some Noodles and Juice to the PSS Nepal. 

We are too much hopeful that we can be a great help to them this time .... What do you say members... please drop in your views.

If you are really interested in doing something for them, you can certainly bring smiles in their faces by donating your unused stuffs, outfits, books, copies and whatever you wish. You can bring them with yourselves this saturday, 23rd April, 2011 at the Pavitra Sewa Samaj (PSS) Nepal, Basundhara (Near Triyog H.S. School and hand it over to Ms. Dikchhya Chapagai. Your every donations counts in here...... Thanking you all for your great support.

Facts of First Assembly of @tfcnepal at Bhrikuti Mandap

In the first ever #tfcnepal meeting held on 9th April, 2011 #Bhrikutimandap, Niraj Acharya @niraj_1974, Aakar (Anil Ghimire) @aakarpost, Pramod Neupane @friendycalls, Ishwor Kafle @ishzz, Nilambar Sharma @nilambar, Saroj Babu Tiwari @sarojtiwari, Mukunda Nepal @hellomuku, Saroj Koirala @saroose, Janak Raj Bhatta @jawn_ake, Santosh Dahal @santosh_dahal, Prabin Regmi @regmibabu, Sailesh Sharma @sailesh_sh, Yadav Bhattarai @yadavbhattarai, Braj dahal, @nepaldiary, Anbika Giri @anbika were present inspite of their busy schedule for the first ever meeting to discuss the plans and policies and the concerns regarding the smooth running of #tfcnepal, a mission to bring smile in the faces.

We concluded tfcnepal to be called as a closed group of enthusiastic twitter friends who are dedicated to workout in the deprived groups around our community and help them to bring smiles on their faces. We thereby will be acting as a non-governmental (non-registered in the governmental records). We'll be working voluntarily for the sake of our own satisfaction and tfcnepal will thus be a non-profit motive closed group and its every works shall be official by the discussions within the members and will imply on the positive responses from the majority of the active members.And in view of these considerations it was decided in our management meeting to think and work in the direction of upgrading our motive to higher level.

The fund collection is not a compulsion to all the members, still those who are willing to donate a bit of their manageable amounts, that is very much appreciable and the money thus collected shall be utilized for the sake of those needy/deprived group of community where our helps can really be counted. You can view the lists of the donors for fund collection here List of people    Donors of #tfcNepal

A very nice initiative was undertaken to gather up whatever we feel are not useful for us, but can be a better gift to the needy ones solely too which can collectively be a major gift too. Eg : I own a CRT desktop monitor which has already been replaced by a LCD monitor and the monitor shall now be used nowhere, there's space problem in managing the stuff and selling it to the recondition houses is the worst idea of all (as its been outdated and no-one has interests in it). We can use those stuffs to donate to the schools where computer is still a worthy material.

Biggest of all, in the name of tfcNepal meeting, we came to know few really nice people from diverse field, banker to blogger, microbiologists to MBA, civil engineer to industrial engineer etc, in person, whom we were talking only in twitter. We can have different ideas and lets make tfcnepal a platform for sharing our views regarding various issues and lets see if we can do anything regarding what we are supposed to do.

All the participants in the programme were happy enough to be participated in a gang of enthusiastic social workers who believe that we can certainly make our society prosperous and can bring happiness in the faces. Above all we came to meet different.

We can do it as we are committed to it. Lets share ideas in which fields we can initiate works. We can also collaborate with any similar organisations working with similar motives, after all working for prosperity and happiness is what we believe. Do drop in your views and suggestions regarding the discussions and motives of tfcnepal in the DM or you can simply mention @tfcnepal in your tweets.

Lets bring smiles in the faces........

Your co-operation in this respect will be very much appreciated.
Thanking you all followers of @tfcNepal
