Mumbai Marathon - Donate for a Cause

Dear Friends,

All of us have been fortunate enough to have received good education due to the fortune of having born in a better family. But there are thousands of children around who are not so fortunate to receive even primary education due to social and economic reasons. I know each one of us wants to contribute in order to remove this inequality and in order to make this world a far more equitable place to live in. I am trying to do my bit and seek your help as well towards this cause.

I plan to run 21 km in the Mumbai Marathon that is going to take place on the 21st of January. I plan to raise money for a NGO called Give India. The plan is to raise around One Lakh and the same will be donated to Give India. The money would be used for education of the under privileged children.

Would seek contributions from each one of you and your friends towards this noble cause. Do let me know as to how much each one of you can contribute so that I can revert with the details on how the same can be done along with the details on tax benefits etc.

Hope all of you will contribute towards this cause. God Bless.

Regards.
