OK, we're a comparatively little organisation well known for big projects... still, it's not every day an organisation of our size out-does Coca-Cola. Bangalore, India, 23 October 2008: Coca-Cola in Australia recently spent the better part of a million dollars advertising the fact that it was putting pink bottle tops on its Mount Franklin mineral water range to raise a sum capped at $5000 for breast cancer, at 20 cents a bottle for 25000 bottles. Coca-Cola is one of the world's largest companies. We,with all of 20 staff and resellers, spent the last two weeks in providing employment opportunities for 30 homeless rural women in Mandya, 106 km from here in Karnakata, South India. We've developed a heap of new products which will be featured on this page on Marion's return to Australia on 16 November. And we raised over $5000 for infrastructure building. Our 3 star tutors - India Flint Nalda Searles and Lindy Frayne, enjoying a quiet get together on Sunday at the training centre.
www.vikasana.net has details of our other fund-raising activities for this organisation, of which we and our associated business elephantconcepts.com are the major sponsors. India Flint, below collaged behind some of her results - more about this dye flower on her website. Photography thankyou Sandra Miller, who participated in this event.
