Sir Ratan Tata Institute

The Sir Ratan Tata Institute (RTI), a well established institution striving to improve economic conditions for unqualified and less privileged members of society, is in the process of putting into place professional systems of management to improve performance and to sharpen its competitive edge in the 21st century. While our garment division and Montessori are doing well, our food division is facing a challenging task. We need not only to upgrade equipment and service but to employ professionals to keep up with the competition in the catering field.

To celebrate its platinum jubilee two years ago a major fund-raising effort was successfully launched to upgrade obsolete equipment and to create a much needed corpus. Upgradation is an ongoing process, and once again we appeal to well-wishers to assist us, as they have done in the past, with liberal and large-hearted grants. To raise funds we are arranging a prestigious film premiere at the recently renovated Sterling Cineplex in Bombay in October 2007.

We do hope you will give us a generous donation to encourage us in our work. Cheques in favor of "Sir Ratan Tata Insitute” may be sent to the undersigned at Sir Ratan Tata Institute, 35, N. S. Patkar Marg, Bombay 400007; tel: 23802781-82, 23804363, 23806724; fax: 23806862.
