2018 Guide to the Navient LawsuitsThe Navient Student Loan Lawsuits, Loan Forgiveness Benefits & RefundsI’ve got great news! Navient, the country’s largest student loan servicing company, is under attack from several massive lawsuits brought against them by the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau and the Attorney Generals of Illinois, Washington and Pennsylvania, all of whom have accused Navient of grossly mishandling their Federal student loan servicing and processing duties. Navient Student LoansWhat this means for you, the Navient borrower, is that you may be eligible to receive significant financial assistance once these lawsuits are settled, via loan forgiveness benefits, but for those of you who’ve been terribly wronged by Navient,Navient Customer Service you will want to consider pursuing you own complete loan forgiveness benefit now by applying for a Borrower’s Defense to Repayment (BDAR) Discharge against Navient.Navient Lawsuit

The objective of this fund raising campaign is to raise RM 300 000.00 for 250 disadvantaged women in three countries, in recognition of International Women's Day, which falls on 8th March 2015. TECH Outreach Malaysia gives POP women (poorest of the poor women) loans ranging from RM 1500.00 (USD 500.00) to RM 2000.00 (USD 700.00) to help these women initiate small business ventures that can help them sustain themselves and their families. The aim is to empower these women to attain sustainability in business income and transformation in their livelihoods by enabling basic needs for them and their families. International Women's Day represents an opportunity to celebrate the achievements of women while calling for greater gender equality. The first International Women's Day was held in 1911, and till today, its an event that is held to mark the economic, political and social achievements of women. Organisations, governments, charities, educational institutions, women's groups, corporations and the media celebrate the day. For this year, with the theme MAKE IT HAPPEN, TECH Outreach Malaysia is organising a Masquerade Charity Night to recognise the achievements of the disadvantaged women they have transformed. The event is on Saturday 7th March 2015 at the Royal Selangor Club, Dataran Merdeka at 7.30 p.m. Tickets are priced at RM 150.00 per person for Dinner & A Night of Fun. All contributions will go towards loans for women headed households in Malaysia, Sri Lanka and Nepal. Each woman will receive a micro loan for RM 1500.00 (USD 500.00) to RM 2000.00 (USD 700.00) and she will repay this loan on a weekly basis for 18 months. All this money goes into a Revolving Fund, which will be "opened" at the end of 18 months to be used for more women. Sustainability in business income and Impact in livelihood transformation are the two key outcomes of this initiative. Dr. Selvamalar Ayadurai Mobile: +6 012 2396 547

Hi Guys, Thank you for visiting my personal fundraising page. This month of March, I'm turning 55! Instead of presents I'm asking for donations! As you know I run a non profit called TECH Outreach and we've been working hard to empower rural women by helping them start small home based businesses. We offer them small interest free loans and lots of training to help them get started. It's something I'm very passionate about and I really want to use my 55th birthday for good this year. I'm looking to raise RM 30,000 so that I can help 20 women across Malaysia, Nepal and Sri Lanka! I would really appreciate the support! Do consider making a donation and I'd love it if you could share this page with as many of your friends as possible. Thank you! Malar

TECH Outreach
Hello, thank you for visiting my personal fundraising page. As we come upon the end of 2013, and for those who have just celebrated our Thanksgiving holiday, this period gives pause to what we have accomplished, how we have contributed, and for what we have to be thankful. We are living in a time where the good in the world is often over-shadowed by a myriad of challenges: economic upheaval – globally and personally, teen suicide, untimely deaths of beloved parents, lay-offs, being passed over for a promotion, and even major life- altering surgeries and diagnoses. The list is long, and familiar. I personally have had friends and family members in my immediate circle who have experienced every single one of these hardships in the past few months. It is often hard to see, much less count, our blessings – because the hardships appear so much larger, darker, and uglier. And, no doubt, they are at certain times. We, as known intrinsically, have much for which to be grateful – all at varying levels and degrees. Yet, honestly, not all of us have our health or wealth or prosperity – and in many cases around the world – not even enough food, shelter or safety. So what are the universal blessings that all of us have, and for which we can all be grateful, regardless of station or status in life? I will share with you three blessings that TECH Outreach Malaysia was glad to be part of: Blessing 1: Time in the Present Moment "Now is the only time we have" to quote a favorite scholar and author of mine: Elisabeth Kupler Ross. She, of course, is right. Everyone from Stephen Hawking to Eckard Tolle has made this point popular in recent years – scientifically, if not spiritually. Yet, so many of us continue to plan for the future or live in the past, with only lukewarm attention to the moment we are in right now. Many of us put our life on hold – waiting for 'something' or 'someone' to enter (then 'real life' will begin). Well, as the old cliché goes – Life is what happens when we are planning our life. Not to say we shouldn't plan – that is a given reality. We have to prepare for the expected and the unexpected. However, what we have is right now ... nothing else, NOTHING else is guaranteed. This year TECH was thankful to have started a project in Nepal with the widows of war with their local representatives RUWON (Rural Women of Nepal). RUWON approached TECH based on our success stories in Sri Lanka and wanted to collaborate to bring the same success to their women who have been affected by the war in Nepal. TECH is grateful that with as little funding we had, we took the risk to start the project in June and the first team of members went to Nepal in July where together with RUWON, we established our processes and teachings with RUWON plus interviewed 20 women. We successfully provided micro credit facilities to 3 women who today are very happy and are planning to move a step higher in their respective business. They say that TECH and RUWON’s collaboration was a gift for them. That is it. Each moment is unequivocally a gift – a gift. It is not guaranteed. The moments become more potent, more precious, a treasured commodity. What are we waiting for, read more about the women in Nepal on TECH’s website www.mytechoutreach.org and start contributing. Blessing 2: The Ability to Give Love It doesn't get much better than giving to another – whatever form that may take. I am not speaking solely of the romantic type of love (though, that is pretty fabulous, too); yet, of 'agape' love. The love that shows up when, for example, a person rescues a lost puppy from a field in west Texas and adopts it as their own, or the woman a few years ago who made national headlines by bailing out a stranger whose house was being foreclosed upon only 'because the women was in need' or the type of love that reveals itself when a group of business leaders rally behind an associate suffering from inoperable cancer. We see this sort of 'love' daily – if we keep our eyes open. Unconditional….without expectation. With full acceptance…..without judgment. Notice, I didn't say 'receive love.' Though, this is indeed a gift, too; not all have been blessed with this. I would love to believe that all living beings have been given this ... though that is not necessarily the reality. What I do know – is that all of us have the ability to GIVE love. By that truth, if we all embrace that opportunity of 'giving,' it is my personal hope that we will all 'receive' love at some point. As the holidays approach and we are ending yet another year, at the risk of sounding a bit "woo woo," I personally am going to try to fully integrate this thought into my life. Not just with and to my friends and family, but with strangers and business associates and through TECH and their initiatives to empower women. Personally, I'm going to really give it a try – and I hope you will help me with this campaign! If we all pull together, perhaps we can give love to the women who are trying to build something not just for themselves but their circle of family and friends and build a “love chain” that develops and develops. Giving love is a blessing we all have. We can choose to fully unwrap it and enjoy it (or not). Blessing 3: Lessons to Learn In some ways, this is the hardest 'blessing' to explain. They most often don't show up as gifts. They show up as hardships, losses, illnesses, set-backs and are just that – lessons. Not ones we necessarily want to learn or ones we think we need to learn. Perhaps we are not even the ones learning them, we are the ones teaching others through how we handle the situation and interact with others through the situation. I have personally learned exponentially more through my hardships (valleys) than I ever learned through my highlights (hills). Correspondingly, I have learned much more through family, friends, acquaintances, and even strangers, who have handled death, illness, bankruptcy, loss of job, loss of home, loss of parents, and children with grace, strength, courage, resolve, and stalwart love of life. They were and are my teachers. We are no doubt in earth school. We are here to learn lessons. These lessons are often the firestorms in life – and they burn into us what we become....brilliant beings of light and love. What a blessing we have all been given. We can choose to go to 'school' and learn lessons (or not). Final point ... many of you may wonder what this article has to do with women or business, well everything. Without awareness and gratitude for our gifts, we miss the richness of what life has to offer and the opportunities we have for giving back. This manifests in all forms, most pertinently perhaps in business – where we spend a majority of our lives! As the end of yet another year rapidly approaches, may we all realise and be grateful for the blessings we all have: - Treasuring the 'here and now' and appreciating and contributing in every single moment we have while here, - Loving openly and freely with no boundaries, judgment or expectation and, - Welcoming the lessons which undoubtedly come our way and give us the opportunity to grow. Blessings Be! Our cups truly do runneth over. Using this given platform is really simple and most importantly it's also a really cost efficient way for the charity to raise funds.
