PAGE 10 THE DALLAS POST Sunday, May 13, 2012 Concert of Bollywood songs will help raise money for ‘classrooms Concert slated for May 18 at St. Maria Goretti Church in Laflin. Samir Date and Dipalee So- maiya are sure to charm a lo- cal audience when they per- form Bollywood songs on May 18, but concert organizers hope the audience will be charmed even more by the yidea of helping children. Committee member Nirma- la Nirmul of Mountain Top said the children who need help live in remote areas of rural India, where the non- profit Ekal Vidyalaya seeks to establish “classrooms” that | can be supported through sponsors who donate $365 per | year. “What we are really looking for is sponsorship of a school,” Nirmul said. The “classrooms” are held in whatever accommodations are available, whether in a building, a makeshift shelter or under a tree. Instructors, who are trained through the Ekal Vidyalaya organization, teach basic reading and writ- ing skills along with health and hygiene, working toward empowering the people of a village and improving their economy. The organization’s website ‘quotes Swami Vivekananda, who said, “If a poor child can- not come to education, educa- tion must go to him” and cites a goal of helping 100,000 vil- lages by 2015. 1 1 Samir Date What: Bollywood Milestones 1961-2011.
