I have been asked to write about my favorite charity. That’s not an easy thing to do. There are so many good people and causes in this world, and it was really hard to choose just one to write about.
After a lot of research I ended up with an organization Asha for Education. The organization was founded back in 1991, and today there are 66 chapters worldwide. More than a thousand active volunteers are involved. Another great about Asha for Education is that the president, Anand Raghavan, is also a volunteer. He doesn’t take a single dime away from the children they are supporting. Wow!
Asha for Education is focusing on providing basic education for underprivileged children in India. By doing this they hope to help make a sosio-economic change in the country. To date Asha for Education has supported about 385 different projects all over India. More than $4 million has been spend on these projects.
What can I say? I think helping children to get an education is a very important cause to support. After all the children are our future.
