SOMETIMES DREAMS COME TRUE
but this is not just a dream

In 2003 I accompanied a group of Italian tourists to visit Rajasthan
Angelo Gregotti and his wife Marilù, their daughter Chiara, Mrs Fiorenza Milesi with their daughter Federica with her husband Niccolo 'Benvenuti.

During the transfer trips I spoke at length with Angelo of my desire to do something to help the local population improve and that the school was the only means.

Angelo's mother had started a similar thing in Africa that had worked well and the population had benefited greatly, so Angelo was very interested in the project.

Our travel program included a visit to Gujrat, a small town in Pakistan, but in those days it was hit by a devastating earthquake.
My group had decided to make a certain sum available to help the affected population, but a very particular bureaucracy had set unacceptable conditions.

Angelo and Fiorenza quickly decided to carry out my project, starting to finance it.
I chose about 170 km from Delhi to Mothuka (Rajasthan). a remote village without electricity, water and not served by any public transport, an area of ​​about 5,000 square meters.

At the beginning the funds were not enough, but first with the help of my father and later with the funds that made me have Angelo, I started the construction of the first eight classrooms and fence the borders.
With new investments sent to me by Federica and her mother, another eight classrooms were built.

Many bureaucratic difficulties, allowed by the education department that delayed beyond all limits, and the distrust of people and local authorities who thought that the purpose of the school was to make "money»

It was a very difficult period and finally when they realized that the aim was only to offer education, the school was able to start.
The first year 35 students with 2 teachers were enrolled, after 3 years the students were about 240.

The expenses to finish the building, the furnishings of the classrooms and laboratories, the library, the purchase of two buses, etc. they were increasingly large but Angelo and some other benefactors made sure that the work could be completed.

We also opened a dental clinic with the collaboration of a group of doctors from Verona who in addition to the equipment dedicated part of their holiday for free.

Today, after 15 years, every day the school continues to provide an ever better education

Now we ask some students to contribute to the expenses and this has been well interpreted, even if in the meantime 10 other English schools have opened, but with a lower level of teaching and higher fees.

Today the G.M. (gregotti milesi) school has received the attestation from the CBSE (ministry of education) that certifies that the students of the G.M. they can attend any type of higher education institution in the world.

This makes us very proud.
The education of girls and boys, the greater awareness of women are the main objective of the school.

Unfortunately our resources are very few, but with the grace of God and with the help of Angelo Gregotti, we will continue our mission.
