Successful completion of the Alstom Foundation project

Update from Melli :-

You might recall that our chapter was successful in getting a large grant ($130K) to build a "green" girls' home. The home was built at Deenabandhu a project partner. The home was successfully inaugurated, and overall Alstom is very pleased. After the initial grant Alstom and Deenabandhu developed a direct contact and Asha's role mostly came to an end (though we would have been responsible if there had been a hitch in the project).

A video summary of the opening ceremony (Alstom's officials attended this in Chamajaranagar, the town where Deenabandhu works): http://cdn.streamlike.com/hosting/alstom2/page.php?med_id=7a15475f2927fc64&lng=lang_per_default&channel=360&language=all&type=detailed&number=10

I have uploaded photographs and press releases at the Deenabandhu webpage: http://www.ashanet.org/projects/project-view.php?p=53
Thanks so much to all who helped make it happen. I consider this a successful project and partnership.
