GiveIndia Newsletter, May 2009 |
Hiren C, an
employee of a global consulting firm in Mumbai, recently wrote
to us. He says:
"Dear GiveIndia team,
Thank you for the feedback. I am pleased with the details
provided and the manner in which the funds were utilized.
I want to share what motivated me to donate. It was an early
Saturday morning when a 12 year old boy on a busy street
approached me and my wife for food. I heard his story of how he
was forced to live on the streets after one of his parents
passed away. While we took care of that boy's immediate needs,
it triggered a larger thought of reaching out to the needy.
GiveIndia was a comforting and transparent platform to do that." |
