Rendezvous-'08
Kiran Rao, Jt.

He urged the alumni to come forward and actively participate in contributing to the success of the event. Passes for the event are available with the committee members on first come first basis.
This year the funds raised strive to sponsor the education of maximum number of marginalized children who toil for a meager pay during the day and burn the midnight oil at the non-funded St. Aloysius Evening High School in the hope of securing a better life. In addition to this, we also aim to sponsor the education cost of the youth who enroll in the Industrial and Technical Training Institute to learn a trade that they can bank on to support their livelihood.

Denzil along with Prashantha Pais (Secretary, Member Affairs) welcomed the new members and encouraged fellow aloysians in Kuwait to register and network with the Alumni.
The meeting was concluded with the vote of thanks delivered by Reshma Correa, General Secretary, extending gratitude to fellow alumnus Archie Menezes, Indian Community School and to the sumptuous snacks and beverages catered by M&M confectionaries. She also thanked all the members in attendance whose association and commitment to fellow members and the alumni is commendable.
