Being Human - A new NGO by Salman Khan
Wednesday, 18 July 2007 18:17
Salman Khan's philanthropic ideal is one of his better-known positive traits. After taking up numerous charitable causes for various NGOs, Sallu has decided to institute a non-profit organisation called Being Human. As part of the Salman Khan Foundation, it will work for the emancipation of underprivileged children.

"Yes, I am setting up Being Human, and it will work for the benefit of neglected children. The funds for the organisation will come from my personal resources. To raise money, I will start making more appearances at events and sell my paintings. If I am unable to raise money, I will extract money from others so better be careful (laughs)," says Salman, who true to his word has called for a press conference to talk about the organisation.

  As for raising money by selling paintings, Salman says, "I will hold an exhibition of my paintings soon, and this time I will sell all of them. I have been making paintings for some time now but my problem is that I make paintings and gift them to my friends. I gifted my first-ever painting to Kailash Surendranath as I faced the camera for the first time for a cola ad that I did for him. Then I started making lot of paintings, and since I live in a very small house and have no place to stack them up, I started putting them up on the wall. I have now become very emotional about them and that's created a problem but I will sell them anyway for my organisation."

funds for the bihar victims
hi Salman i really dont know who checks these mails for you but i have a favor. i was grazing through the net and found an article stating that your foundation"Being Human " is going to provide funds for the Bihar victims. the thing is i have a bunch of youth that have collected food items for the victims but we have no agent to send it there. if you could be generous enough to accept our aid under your NGO would be highly appreciated. we do not need any kind of acknowledgment.
will be waiting for you positive reply.

regards

Dear salman,
It is really a great feeling when you realise there is so much you can do for these underprivilege children , I am also associated with an organisation in Delhi, where our main aim is to provide employable education, so that they can become economically independent. Let me know if I can do some programe for your organisation for the personality development as well as Employable Education. These children not only needs monetary support but they should be shown a direction where they can become independent also. Good Luck

charity begins at hole
Hi
Nice to hear that you're planning for 'Human Being', but don't forget the 'depressed being'in your country. Indian Muslims, today, are the most depressed community in the world. God give u courage to work for them.
