<!--emo&:thumbdown--><img src='style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/thumbsdownsmileyanim.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='thumbsdownsmileyanim.gif' /><!--endemo--> ASHA did certainly fool me - sometime back I gave them $ to sponsor the some kids in W. Bengal for a period of 5 years. Never heard from the co-oridnators/kids ever again. When I wrote to some ASHA big cheese on West coast, the response I got was that folks who co-ordinate ASHA activities are volunteers and these things fall through cracks.
Didn't help me replying back that this co-ordinator was not a school kid but a India engineer working for Microsoft and how does a single donation in four figures "fall through the crack" <!--emo&:angry:--><img src='style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/mad.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='mad.gif' /><!--endemo-->

They ain't getting a dime from me in future. <!--emo&:thumbdown--><img src='style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/thumbsdownsmileyanim.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='thumbsdownsmileyanim.gif' /><!--endemo-->
