For a Good Cause...!

Hello Friends!!!

We all have our own aspirations, our apprehensions, thoughts, some of us believe that whatever we think we can definitely achieve it... and some of us... (like me...) wud let that thought go by thinking that "its just one of those days".

BTW how many of us actually have the guts to stand up for what we believe in... we fear... we would be ridiculed, laughed at, by society, by our family... but what if that thought is more powerful than all this... i would like to share some one incident with you all...

The other day i was going to some restaurant and a kid caught my eye... the kid was actually very simple... nothing new in it... only that she was lying on her mother's lap with his eyes stuck to the sky... her mother desperately trying to sell some balloons so that she can feed her baby... the kid unnerved from all this was keeping his eyes fixed....

A thought struck my mind... wht can that kid think of... we as kid wud think of going to school the other day... maybe getting holiday so we wud play all day with our kins... but wat abt tht kid...???

Can we change all this.. can we... with our limited knowledge and potential... can we give that kid a good education... knowledge doesnt have a patent and it doesnt even require any resource... only a tutor and a student.... can we do this...

Well most of us can... only thing is that we need to have the "DESIRE"... a desire to look beyond our own life... and think how many life can we affect by our actions... only for the good...

Hence a group of us have decided to bring this cause to task and create an NGO that can help destitute kids and children with limited means get education... this wud first b started off with a "community website" on the lines of "orkut" and then take the shape of a full blown organization in the days to come... our partners would be governmental agencies... our dream is to make these kids become the future...

Even a single kid getting full education and taking up a professional career through us would make our efforts a success!!!

I am not calling for any money or donation... there is plenty that we can contribute apart from money... and one of that thing is "Our Support to the Cause"

I sincerely hope that i have definitely struck a chord with all you people as far as this goes...

I dont know where this would take me or us... whether we would actually be able to make it on our own... or it would just die... as all our aspirations have... i believe that it does not take one person or a group to make it a success... but what i can do is stand for that thought....

Best,

Rajat
