Dear beloved Family & Friends,
Warm Greetings! Namaskara! Vanakkam!
I completed 15 years of running on January 1, 2025. What makes my running journey meaningful & enjoyable is because I give back to the community through my running endeavors. This year, I'm raising funds for an organization called Reaching Hand, which works with underprivileged children.
Reaching Hand is committed to educate vulnerable & underprivileged girls. We all know that education is the key to breaking the cycle of poverty and empowering these young minds to build better lives for themselves and their communities. However, to continue this vital work, they need your support.
Imagine a place where every child, despite the challenges of poverty and adversity, can dream big, learn, and thrive. At Reaching Hand’s shelter Home for vulnerable Girls called as New Home and Light House Academy, a school for underprivileged children. Reaching Hand is committed to making this vision a reality.
Their mission is to provide a safe, nurturing environment where 50 vulnerable children at New Home and 165 underprivileged children at the Light House school can receive quality education, proper nutrition, free mid-day meals, healthcare and the emotional support they need to grow into confident and capable individuals.
Your donation, no matter how big or small, will have a profound impact on these children's lives. I am inviting you to join me in this noble cause at the TCSW10k 2025 Bengaluru. Together, we can make a difference and give these children the hope and opportunities they deserve. Please consider making a donation to Reaching Hand today and be a part of this transformative journey.
Thank you for your kindness and support. Your generosity is the light that guides these young hearts toward a brighter future.

Yours truly,
