If we want to associate with CRY, we could probably start a Bloggers CRY Action Center which would be a Virtual Action Center.<BR/><BR/>2. If we want to create a separate Blogger's Virtual Social Organization - we could do that but probably will take more effort in setting it up.<BR/><BR/>Either way, I noticed that cosmicblobhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11860963118200889527noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12741547.post-1121224524615709602005-07-12T22:15:00.000-05:002005-07-12T22:15:00.000-05:00Robbie,ungalukku ulla ipdi oru nallennamaaa.. gudd...Robbie,<BR/>ungalukku ulla ipdi oru nallennamaaa.. guddu guddu.<BR/><BR/>Actually my college guyz(i.e students and alumni) are working day and night to help these people in an organization called "Pudiyadhor" near urapaakkam.

You can spread the word to people about the plight of children in India, raise awareness and get more people thinking about it than just you. That is what CRY is all about. Raising awareness through events - the outcome happens to be fund raising for the children. As much as showering love on these children is important,cosmicblobhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11860963118200889527noreply@blogger.com
