delightful park managed by Mahakali ALM in Andheri East. The park is so easily
accessible for children living in nearby pagodas that it seems like this was
waiting to happen. The residents too have come forward with crackling
enthusiasm.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

from reading an article in the <b>Telegraph magazine</b> about a French

and <b>thrusts</b> of the <b>corporate world</b>. <b>4 years ago</b>, while
writing my <b>life-story</b> for a workshop, a lot of you in the audience know
what I’m talking about. I wrote about <b>building a home for street children</b>;

I could have asked for. A year ago, I was up <b>against a wall</b>, seriously
questioning the sense in continuing with Angel Xpress, <b>given the ups</b> and
downs in the support I received. I even appeared for a job interview and came
out feeling miserable and guilty; <b>even at that point</b> I couldn’t imagine

are bad. Sometimes, the <b>ground</b> beneath our feet <b>shakes</b> to land us

things I had been missing</b> out on. One of the <b>activities</b> I took up

and <b>market</b> value, to <b>pursue</b> something I knew <b>nothing</b>
about, and which would have no <b>monitory return</b>. It might have <b>seemed

and resources; <b>slums, high rises and parks exist side by side across Mumbai.</b> I <b>started</b> out, partnering with Beenaa Advani, one

and I were found teaching 100+ kids <b>all by ourselves</b> in Santacruz, but <b>this
year</b> has <b>turned things around</b>, the <b>number of people present</b>
here is a <b>testimony</b> to that fact. Today with your help ladies and

<i><b>January 2012</b></i>
<i>One Facebook post asking for clothes for slum children had
3000 people calling to offer help. The intent behind Angel Xpress
Foundation was born.</i><br />
<br />
<i>Every year since, we salute the people who
created this movement, by acknowledging and appreciating our volunteers
and donors, who have been supporting this cause.</i><br />

<h3>
About us</h3>
Angel Xpress Foundation provides a platform for educated adults, to fulfill the education needs of underprivileged children; and nurture a better future where they can make responsible choices. We currently reach out to 500 children through our 3 centres, located in public parks and promenades across Mumbai city. Here, children from slums find access to their affluent educated, neighbors who care to spare 2-3 hours / week to teach them English and Math.<br />
<br />
We also conduct English classes for over 1000 children at select vernacular-medium Municipal (BMC) Schools, and promote extra-curricular activities with the help of volunteers, trained teachers, and educationists. We see our work as one step to shape the future of first-gen learners, who tend to stray in the absence of appropriate adult guidance.<br />

There is abundance for everyone who desires and can intend innocently. The Angel Xpress Toy Give away was nothing but a universal conspiracy to fulfill the deep desire of children to own a toy.<br />
<br />
What started with a doll that our volunteer Aparna Kanda donated spiraled into a grand plan for a “toy give away” event on a happy Sunday morning. Beautifully executed with support from a lot of generous givers and supporters like Ruchita Dar Shah (who runs First Moms Club on Facebook), the event inspired many mommies to come forward and donate.

Renowned artist and performer Sunita Bhuyan came to play for us at our Bandstand Centre on 30th June. Not just our children and volunteers, but hundreds of passersby gathered to listen to her violin, and sang along. We overheard many saying; this was the most fun evening they had in a longtime.<br />

12 odd kids who come from about 2 kms afar are inevitably late for class and often arrive wet as they walk the distance. A post and a prayer for conveyance later, we found Nelson, owner of a fleet of school buses, who instantly agreed to ferry the kids for free, with us just paying for the fuel. This has helped push the number of kids attending our classes from that school to nearly 20 in the last few days.<br /></div>

<br />
<b>Juhu welcomes Angel Xpress</b>: Tireless efforts of Juhu resident <b>Avani Dalal</b> bore fruit when an Angel Xpress center finally came through in Juhu, with support from Rotary Bombay Airport. <span dir="ltr">Today, one day away from launch scheduled for the 1st of August, over 50 children and 35 volunteers have already signed up</span> and are eagerly awaiting the formal launch on 1st August. Sure enough, Juhu residents sport a healthy social conscience! <br />
<br />
<b>Growing from English to Maths and Science</b>: Our pilot project inside Chapel Road BMC School, Hindi medium has found huge success: not only are we teaching English to classes II – VII, we are also taking Math and Science classes. The BMC ward office has now requested us to support yet another Hindi medium school in Khar in a similar capacity.<br />
<br />
<b>Kicking it up</b>: Class VII kids from Bombay International School held a 3-day football training camp for Class V and VI kids of Chapel Road BMC School, Bandra. Having got a taste of the fun, our kids are eager to learn more. So if your kids love football and are excited to coach younger kids, write to us.</div>

<b>This month, the highly popular and talented Vishal Dadlani strummed up some tunes for us</b><br />
<br />
It began when Tina Thadani came to shoot us for an international film project that she had been awarded. She gave us this incredible gift of a video that speaks volumes of the work we do. Vishal Dadlani's stirringly beautiful music has added soul to her beautiful piece.<br />

<b>Good news to share!</b><br />
<br />
We are happy to share that this month, we have started teaching English to class 3 and 4 inside a BMC Hindi medium school near Lilavati Hospital, Bandra; marking a new phase for Angel Xpress. Two teachers have been appointed for the task by us.<br />
<br />
We also noticed that the school happens to be short of teachers and class II and class V has had no class teacher for a couple of years now. Anyone willing to come and teach these kids - even for an hour a day? You can come in from 10.30 - 12.30 in the morning or 3.30 - 5.30 in the evening. </div>

Glamorous enough to be in-front of the camera, <b>Tina Thadani</b> came to film our Bandstand Centre to show her friends in New York that “<b>people actually do care</b>”. The lady kept coming to play and teach the kids; and then last month she kept a donation box for us at one of her parties. The figure she came back with left us slack-jawed at the generosity of her friends. It went over six digits and showed us the huge hearts that blessed people can have. </div>
