Your Association is unable to communicate effectively with you all since we don’t have correct addresses, telephone numbers and especially email addresses.
Last year we were unable to publish the Pocket address Book due to lack of proper details. I appeal to all of you to kindly communicate with us and up-date your details. This is for the benefit of all of us. Please also remember that postal charges have gone up substantially and this forms a major drain on our resources. I request you all to extend your kind co-operation and also inform other fellow Georgians.
With Best Regards

Personal Donations Appeal
Dear Georgians
Your Association has largely been funded by donations and advertisement revenue. Great changes in the School infrastructure has been brought about by Senior Georgians who are in a position to direct policies and funds for the school’s requirement. To our prestige we have very senior officers posted in the Ministry to carry on the good work.
However, there is a paucity of funds for non-budgetable expenditure like additional training for cadets in English, preparing for competitive exams adventure sports and sundry day to day expenditure.
We are all aware that all over India there are specialist organizations, drilling / grilling children to top various competitive exams especially the UPSC and NDA. While our boys certainly better at physicals in the SSB, they lack skills in the presentation, interviews and especially English Language, diction and speech skills.
We are all aware that in the last few years most boys leave the school after the X Std to get better training out side in their XI and XII to qualify for the various competitive exams.
This would not be happening if the parents were sure that their wards were getting much better attention at the School, than what they can provide.
There is also the need to build a corpus to ensure sufficient funds from Bank Interest so the yearly budget of the OBA can be met without continuously sourcing donations.
It has been a tradition for all Senior and Junior Georgians to contribute their mite for the good cause. Names are published in the magazine and individuals donate a minimum of Rs.1000/- of course without any upper limit.
May I kindly request you all to once again show this magnanimous gesture this year and kindly send in your contributions by demand draft / cheques (preferably at par) in favour of ‘GEORGIAN ASSOCIATION MILITARY SCHOOL BANGALORE” . You are welcome to contact us by mail or any Committee Member for any help and suggestions.
