In the process of helping a much disturbing
labor camp - characterized by the lack of
shelter / food & water, the human beings
from various walks of life have stretched
out their hands with alms, after a general
appeal from the Malayalee volunteers of ‘The
Art Of Living’ who are leading by a
Malayalam Art of Living teacher at Dubai
Chapter. Our partners of this success
movement to mitigate the miseries of those
unfortunates from the Andhra Predesh / Tamil
Nadu are mainly Dubai Indian Consulate,
96.7 Hit FM Radio Dubai, Telungu
Radio Sharjah, Asianet TV and 1539 AM
Asianet Radio, Dubai respectively and
the daily creative campaign running through
the 96.7 Hit FM radio have really
opened-up the hearts of the listeners.
A few from this class of people who are
willing to go to India were gone
after getting the necessary legal
documents with a free ticket from the
Indian Consulate, Dubai, giving
further assurance that they are ready to
give free tickets to anybody from this group
who are desiring to go back to home.
In connection with their journey back to
home 96.7 Hit FM have managed to
raise a special fund from which they have
given AED 500 (Approx INR.5200) for each one
and it was given for these 3 people who have
already gone to Andhra Pradesh, India.
Through 96.7 Hit FM as well as from
the people who are directly or indirectly
connected through AOL volunteers are
supplying food / cloth to these people at
the site. The food is being given through a
restaurant which is adjacent to the site and
these donors are invited and requested to
remit the money to this concerned restaurant
directly. This restaurant in turn will
give food to these people according to the
food coupon which is distributed among these
people.
As a detailed summary the following points

project which was happened only by the grace
of Poojya Sri Sri Ravishankar.
