Coimbatore school receives award for 100% results!
By Venkat Ramakrishnan | Project Leader
Teachers with the school award
Dear Patrons,
Every year, the Academic Council of Matriculation Schools conducts
award functions to honour the schools which produced 100% students
passing in the SSLC (10th grade) examinations, and the Higher Secondary
Board (12th grade) examinations.
In the last week of November, such a function was conducted which was
attended by the Coimbatore school. The school received an award for
producing 100% result in the SSLC exams in 2016, as well as for producing
lots of 100% scoring in Maths, Science and Social studies, by the school
students!
Teachers of those subjects also received certificates of appreciation.
The award and the certificates were given by Inspector of Matriculation
Schools officer Mrs. Vanaja, and District Education Officer Mrs. Thenmozhi.
The school staff share:
"We felt very happy to receive the award. We've shared the same with our
students & staff in the school assembly!"
We attach a couple of pictures of the same for your viewing. We hope and wish
that more and more Isha Vidhya students excel in the subjects and clear the
examinations such that they can chart their path for their higher education
or gainful employment of their choice!

A custom-made Thank You note for GivingTuesday!
By Venkat Ramakrishnan | Project Leader
Dear Patrons,
The fund-raising platform Global Giving, through which
you donated to Isha Vidhya on #GivingTuesday, when
we raised around $27,000 on a single day, has partnered
with 'Imprint' to design a custom-made 'Thank You' note
to all of you who have supported Isha Vidhya so far.
This note is prepared by all of us at Isha Vidhya.
You can see the note here:
https://imprint.us/imprints/e1f480c58cc0y/present
We would like to bring to your attention that the recurring
donation match campaign is still on at Global Giving (subject
to matching funds being available at the time of your donation).
If you start a recurring donation and sustain it for atleast 3 months,
Global Giving will match one of those donations 200%. That
means, if you donate $75 ($25 each month), Global Giving will
put $50, so Isha Vidhya will get $125! We request you to
make use of this opportunity, as it will also enable you to
contribute in small amounts monthly towards Isha Vidhya.

Please feel free to share this message with your circle of
friends, colleagues, relatives, partners, etc, so that they
get to know too.
We look forward for your continued support for Isha Vidhya.
Best Regards.

Thank you donors but the campaign is not over yet!
By Venkat Ramakrishnan | Project Leader
Spell Bee - 1
Dear Patrons,
Our heart-felt gratitude for your phenomenal support
with donations on GivingTuesday on Nov. 29th, when
Isha Vidhya raised around $27,000 (with around $21,800
as donations, and around $5,700 as matching) ! This
would enable us in a significant way to fund the critical
infrastructure needs at the Isha Vidhya schools and the
support for the Government schools, this year! Thank you!
The campaign is not over yet! If you missed donating
to Isha Vidhya on Nov. 29th, and would like to donate,
we recommend you make recurring donation for small
amounts like $25 and carry it on for a minimum 3 months.
Global Giving is currently matching one of those donations
200%! That means, Isha Vidhya will be getting double
the amount of donation that you have made!
This campaign runs till December 31st, but don't wait as
the matching funds are running out fast! We recommend
that you donate immediately!

58 students registered and 57 students participated. We are
attaching the photos of the event and the sharings for your viewing!
For any questions, please email global.giving@ishavidhya.org
We thank you for everything that you did for Isha Vidhya,
and looking forward to your continued patronage!
