Life is a gift, and it offers us the privilege, opportunity, and responsibility to give something back by becoming more.

Thank you for visiting my page.

This year I am training for a half marathon and have pledged to raise $1300 . My race is in February and I need your help in raising that amount.

Why ASHA?

There are many organizations that need funds. Every organization has a noble cause. I have closely interacted with the volunteers that work for various projects in ASHA. They are the most committed folks I have had the chance to meet. For all the effort done by each person with a demanding day job, I was surprised to know that they work so hard and the only payback they get is the  satisfaction of seeing someone in India get a good education. I want to be a part of the cause as well. For now I am going to raise $100 for every mile I will run on February 19, 2012 and I cannot do it without your help.

Why am I running to raise funds?

Because…

1) That is the only way I can contribute right away.

2) I believe I will have enough supporters to raise $1300 or more.

3) I truly believe that education can change a life forever.

 Now I am going to pray real hard that each one of you who visits my page will make a contribution to my cause.

What can YOU do to for young children who really need your help?

If my favorite organization speaks to you as well, please click on the links below to contribute. A lot of companies have matching programs. What they do is if you contribute through them, they make a contribution as well. If your company does that, please choose that option.

Thank you so very much for your help.
