So the website is finally up! And my, is it kick arse! Kudos Gaurav!
Which brings us to the point where I’ve been asked to write 300 words on what I’m doing right now. Tough one, that.
My name is Ila Reddy and I currently head The Right to Information Branch at The YP Foundation. There’s so much happening around here, I can’t decide where to start!
Just read Angarika’s post and clearly the team has been working oh-so-hard and are pretty much losing their minds
AND finally we are doing a fundraiser! Its so cool to think that we will have a concert and actually walk away with some money as opposed to having no money to pay the band,printers etc and dealing with the repercussions next year.
Besides the insanity that’s taken over (someone should really put up some of the e-mails circulating within staff, the not-so-inappropriate ones), and the fact that the concert is 3 minutes before the exams start, YAY! And we finally have a website to publicize it on! Hee hee ..
As people, we need to create the change we want to see.
Bother. To engage with the system.
To challenge it. To change it.
We need accountability. Not excuses.
We need active citizenship.
What does your vote really want?
