A long felt need of SEWA news magazine is now fructified with regular publication of SEWA Quarterly newsmagazine. Besides its prime activity of door to door Sunday weekly education campaign, there are other educational activities going on all through the year. This was to be documented and brought on record. Furthermore SEWA activities are being extended and started for first time in newer areas. Parents and students get apprised about SEWA through such magazine. Hence a newsmagazine serves dual purpose of informing newcomers about SEWA core activities and informing general public about progress, achievements of new teams.
Accordingly, first issue of July-September quarter was published on September 2020and second issue of the quarter October-December is published at the end of December 2020. Next issue (January-March quarter) will be published InshaAllah on March 2021.It is published in Urdu and Hindi. The contents include overview of SEWA activities, current and future projects and motivational articles. Second issue was having introduction and Do's and Don'ts by Azharuddin Kazi, IAS (2020), presently at Lal Bahadur Shastri National Academy of Administration College (LBSNAAC) , Mussoorie, Dehradun, Uttarakhand He was closely associated with SEWA..
The news magazine is edited by Mahfooz Ur Rahman Khan who is having an illustrious career as a teacher. Contributions from the concerned people, comments and suggestions for Quarterly news magazine are welcome.
Management of Azam Campus has recently boosted the morale of SEWA by waiving off the hostel charges for more than 40 students sponsored by SEWA, residing, graduating and preparing for UPSC / MPSC examinations.
SEWA spent Rs. 17,99,293/- during the year 2019-20, mostly on students school, college fees and hostel charges. All the expenses are born out of donations from individuals. Initially all the expenses were met by individual SEWA members, but funds started trickling in as SEWA activities were watched by the society, public in general. Donations range from Rs. 200 to Rs. 50,000/-. There are more than 50 local donors who contributes Rs. 500/- to Rs. 2000/- per month.
Cashbooks and relevant records are maintained. Account is scrutinised, audited and certified by the recognized chartered accountant. Transparency in financial transaction is maintained. Receipt and Expenditure is displayed on SEWA office notice boards and also posted on SEWA whats app groups. It was heartening to find that all the requests / demands from individuals were quite genuine and nobody took any disadvantage or misuse of SEWA funds.

|---|---|
| 2015-16 | 1.55 lakh |
| 2016-17 | 3.55 lakh |

SEWA was constituted and started to do what was necessary - which was, creating education awareness among students, then SEWA started doing what was possible - helping students with books and stationary and guidance and now we find that we are doing what was perceived as impossible - selecting bright but very very poor student, sponsoring them to best possible colleges, paying substantial amounts for their fees and boarding and preparing themselves for top position in country.
SEWA activities are increasing day by day. There are already near to 5000 students on SEWA record. Every weekly campaign brings 8-10 new students. Besides these closely interacted students, other students also approach SEWA on their own. SEWA activities are being extended to other villages, cities and other districts. SEWA is incurring expenses ranging from pen, books, stationery to school and college fees, hostel, boarding charges of underprivileged students. Many of these bright, promising students are economically abysmally poor. SEWA also incur expenses on seminars, workshops and guest lectures, besides maintenance of library. With these multifarious expenses, SEWA expenses have reached new high of RS. 1 lakh per month. And with current pace of activities it will rise even further. Hence we earnestly appeal for generous donations from all sections of society. This is a fit cause for zakat and sadaqa as well.
Donations may please be remitted to SEWA account. Name, place of donor may please be intimated for issuing proper receipt.
