introduction
This annual report describes all the activities SCF India has carried out in 2006.
These are split up in different subjects,
illustrated with photographs. The report
also gives you a summary of SCF finances in 2006.
The board of SCF India likes to take this
opportunity to thank all her volunteers, donors and sponsors for their financial and
moral support. Without them we would
not have been able to complete all our activities.
Every donor, volunteer and sponsor receives a digital copy of the annual report.
It will also be available for others on the
SCF website (www.scfindia.com).

In June 2006 we had to move to another

was leaking and the landlord refused to
fix this.

to find a new employee during the visit in
January 2007.
In September 2006 a student from the van
Hall Larenstein University at Wageningen
contacted SCF, she was looking for an internship. After consulting it turned out that
a this request did fit perfectly with both the
SCF Education Project and her studies.
The University indicated that they would
only give their consent to an internship if
there was a co-operation with an organisation in India!
Another issue that will be solved during
the visit of SCF board members in January 2007.
education project
Of course we did have plans made for the
Education Project even though the project
was put on hold for the time being. That
made it possible to enter SCF India in the
sponsor round of Medtronic at Arnhem.
Employees from this company could present their request for an organisation they
personally are involved with. Paul van
Veldhuizen entered his request on behalf
of SCF India which resulted in a cheque
of € 2000.- donated by Medtronic!
SCF India also handed in a funding request to the City of Deventer. They approved and granted us an amount of €
1188.-.
The reason to use both requests for our
Education Project was that we decided
to give the Project priority in 2007 and to
make sure it will have a solid start.

MARKETS & EVENTS
In 2006 SCF was present at as much
markets and events as possible to raise
money for all our activities. This creates extra sale-opportunities for our
products to become more widely known
and recruit volunteers to join SCF India.
We were present at two big markets in
Zutphen and the Ronak Mela event in
Amsterdam. Of course we put in a lot of
effort to sell amongst friends and family.

Extra income, more volunteers and more

cultural day with SCF India. A large part
of the street was filled with stalls where
everybody, young and old, could sell their
stuff. Different social organisations in Deventer had stalls where they could present themselves.
All participating organisations had their
own stall and were requested to bring
something such as, music, dance, food
or other things of the country they represented.
The whole day was a very big success
with Turkish food from the Mosque, singing, dance and drums from the DR of the
Congo. A bellydance workshop and a performance of Turkish folkdance.
