Updates from Venkatesh
Update from Coimbatore: we've started the first stage. We're at 56% of the goal. Thank you for believing in us.
Good news. Because of your gifts ($248 in total) we've started the first stage. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.
Thank you all. We're at 14% now ($94). I'm honestly stunned. the plan for course fees and exam costs is now scheduled.
