Please visit http://www.iitbombay.org to support the GO-IITB Campaign. Whether you contribute Rs. 5000/$50 or Rs. 50,000/$500 or more does not matter ... the important thing is to give back to your alma mater, and support the Tryst with Excellence, which in turn helps you succeed by providing the staff to maintain our website, and the social media sites like our FaceBook and LinkedIn Groups, and in general enhancing "Brand IIT Bombay".
Bharat Desai, one of our distinguished alums, explains below as to why he believes we should all be giving back to IITB ... click here to hear him in his own words.
The inter-batch competition is heating up but it looks like the Class of 1975 is going to easily beat the rest, so please step up and contribute whatever you feel comfortable with, instantly online, and support GO IITB and also help your batch move up the league table.

Alumni volunteers and support from alumni like you helps us offer vital social networking tools like the IIT Bombay LinkedIn Group. This enables you to connect and network with over 6700 alumni of IIT Bombay across the globe, working at leading universities and corporations, and in government and non-profit jobs. Unlike many other IIT Groups and other alumni Groups on LinkedIn, IITBAA staff checks each new member for alumni status before accepting a request to join our Group. Please take full advantage of this powerful network to further your own career and business prospects, and help your fellow alumni in their careers and businesses by mentoring and sharing your own experiences with them.
In addition to the FB and LinkedIn Groups, you can also visit and login on http://www.iitbombay.org and connect with all 35,000+ IIT Bombay alumni worldwide, searching by company, location, area of specialization etc. If you need help logging in, just use the instant username and password reminder link or contact directory@iitbombay.org.
=================
A personal appeal from Bharat Desai, Chairman, IITBHF and Founder/Chairman of the Board, Syntel Inc.
I am writing to you to urge you to participate in the GO IITB Campaign and support our alma mater's Tryst with Excellence. IIT Bombay has played a significant role in shaping our careers and lives. Increased alumni participation is critical for IIT Bombay to retain its world-class standing in education and research. How much you choose to donate does not matter, since you may have many good causes to support. However, participating in GO-IITB will show your support and will make a difference.
Team IITBHF & IITBAA
