GULABHAI MISTRY'S 1st EMAIL TO PVAF: From: PVAF-UK-Gulabhai M. Mistry Sent: Tuesday, August 10, 2004 6:44 AM To: Champak D. Mistry Subject: Degam Overseas Welfare Trust & Prajaapati Marriage Web Page on PVAF web site . Dear Champakbhai, I read your message copied to me regarding welcoming to PVAF prajapatio in Kenya and how they can have their own Kenya page on PVAF web site. Here in UK, the Prajapatis have created a Trust known as Degam Overseas Welfare Trust. This was established during its inauguration meeting in Leicester on 28th March 1999. All families whose forefathers originated from Degam village, gujraat, India  gathered together and resolved to work together for the upliftment of the village and poor villagers living in India whatever their caste, creed or religion. The only criteria is that he or she is Degam resident and genuinely needy and without any resources whatsoever. About 400 elders ladies youth and children gathered together, discussed what and how we could uplift the village Degam and collected £2554.00 donation for spending in Degam. We have since then had three more gatherings in successive years and I will give details of the 5th gathering being held in Leicester on the 19th September 2004. We will be pleased and thankful if we are allowed to use your website to publicize our formation and seek donations from any one who is sympathetic to our cause whether of Degam origin or not. Degam Overseas welfare Trust is being registered as a charitable institution in UK and works in close cooperation with Degam Prajapati Samaj which is also being registered as a charity in India. I know that similar activities are going on for welfare of Vesma and Kumbhar Falia in gujraat, India. It also occurs to me that lot of our youth find it increasingly difficult to find their marriage partners. The youths have now transcended the caste barriers in their choice of marriage partners and in a sense lost some of the security which their parents provided by screening the family of the partners. Some of our youths still respect the tradition and seek their parents to choose their partners in the traditional way. Could we not provide them a "Prajaapati Shaadi web page" on PVAF web site type of service for Prajapatis worldwide where the youngster looking for spouse are asked to subscribe? I know of other communities who have started this experiment. Let me know if I can help. I am a 87, a retired solicitor living in London during summer and India during winter. In the meantime, I met Chandrakant Dahyabhai Lad of Calgary, Alberta, Canada who is PVAF's ambassador for PVAF Gujraat Education Program when he was in London recently. He has been speaking very highly of you. Om, Gulabbhai Morarji Mistry 145 salmon Street, London NW9 8NG DEGAM OVERSEAS WELFARE TRUST PVAF'S RESPONSE TO 1ST EMAIL FROM GULABBHAI M.
