Dear Colleagues,partners,supporters and friends of Mumbai Smiles,

As we enter the New Year 2015, let me take this opportunity to express my very best wishes and gratitude to all the team members and the partners for your great cooperation and looking forward to your continuing fruitful and productive cooperation in the New Year.

I am happy to share with you Three exciting events that have recently transpired within Mumbai Smiles, First is the launch of the new Mumbai Smiles website, www.mumbaismiles.org. As an organization, we have always believed in the importance of communication, website is a powerful medium of communication, so we have ensured that ours is up-to-date and informative. The second news I’m happy to share with you is the launch of 4 New Projects with new partners i.e., 2 New Balwadis ( supported by Cipla Foundation), Life Skills Empowerment for adolescent girls (with the support of Give A Hand), Green Bati Project and  mMitra Project (with the support of Armman) and many new partners assured to join us in the upcoming year. Last but not the least, I am proud that each and every team professionals have excellently managed the project monitoring system to assure the quality of our services in our programs. We love that and we want it to continue as we grow and expand.

None of this could have happened without our people’s commitment and hard work of the Team. On behalf of the management team of Mumbai Smiles, I am grateful that you are passionate and visionary. I would like to extend my sincere thanks to everyone who has dedicated their work to excellence, and has helped Mumbai Smiles to be the best development agency to our beneficiaries.

To everyone in the Mumbai Smiles family – India and Spain Team, our beneficiaries, our collaborative partner agencies (SAPREM and HOLY SPIRIT HOSPITAL), and to our new supporting agencies (Cipla foundation, Armman, Give A Hand, Green Batti Project, FPAI and UNFPA). Thank you for being a part of our journey. It’s only just beginning and we’re looking forward to an even more exciting 2015.

We are moving into the New Year, as we now have more than 8,000 lives we touch directly every year (our beneficiaries) through our projects. We have lot of plans for 2015, going ahead of just what we were doing in the previous years. With the New Year coming in, we look forward to another productive year together.

I wish you and your loved ones a healthy, happy and prosperous New Year!

Working together: Making a difference!
