Dear InterConnection,

Greetings from the Center for Sustainable Development Actions (CSDA). Thank you so much for providing us the opportunity to say something about Interconnections services.

1. we think that Interconnection is providing excellent services to very needy NGOs in developing countries, who do not have their own resources/capacities for developing/hosting their sites on the web- ourorganization, CSDA, is one exapmle of these.

2. Interconnection services are very fast, very innovative, very responsive, impressive and accomodating.

3. Our NGO, CSDA, has greatly benefited/ and is benefiting from interconnection services as it has (by developing our website and by hosting it)provided easy access about CSDA’s mission and proograms to international donors which would not have happened otherwise. As a result of interconnection’s generous support, we are in touch with the world. Now many national and international donors, development organizations know us, and we know them as they conntact us after looking at our website. All this is because of the great services we have received from the interconnection– thanks very much to Mr Charles Brennick. We are receiving offers for proposal writing support, offers for voluntary work for CSDA, offers for internships, offers for affiliations and partnerships with other development NGOs, offers to participate in world level events and so on and so forth… and all that is because CSDA is now on the wesite. Our work on gender, poverty and environmental issues in underdeveloped areas of pakistan is now begining to receive an increasing attention from donors including Global Fund for women, Womankind, and other similar organizations.

4. There are enormous direct and indirect positive impacts of Interconnections services in developing countries like Pakistan– these are not only through webhosting but also from new contacts developed and resources generated (through this webhosting) and the enormous impacts of these resources on the lives of the poor and disadvantaged.

5. we greatly appreciate the services that Interconnection has generously provided to our organization-CSDA, and we fully support the future initiatives that Interconnection is planning to undertake.

6. we will greatly appreciate if CSDA is provided with additional features of raising money on the internet (where people can make pledges or donate directly through the web) and domain name hosting.

7. we will also appreciate if CSDA is gifted old computers to maintain its data bases and to undertake other computer related activities.

Once agian we thank you for your kind cooperation and help to CSDA.

Kind Regards

Ms Tahseen Fatima
