Marathon fever is here, and this year I am going to be participating in the charity run of the Mumbai Marathon 2008 on 20th January! Like last year, I will be helping raise funds for an NGO – Mumbai Mobile Creches – that supports children on construction sites be safe, healthy and educated. Many of you supported this cause last year through your generous donations, and in fact, they were able to reach 4800 kids…a record! This year, they have set a target of 6000 children, and it's really important for me to help them to reach this.
For over 35 years, Mobile Creches has been dedicated to providing children living on construction sites with basic education, nutrition and healthcare.Through its 22 centers in the city, Mumbai Mobile Creches reaches out to over 4,000 children in Mumbai each year. However, there are an estimated 100,000 children living on construction sites in the city. Clearly, many more children need such support and new centers need to be set up.
We will be an exciting, vibrant and enthusiastic group taking the Mumbai Mobile Creches cause to the streets of the city. Our team will include staff, volunteers and supporters and, of course, a bunch of children from our centers. The money we raise will go toward ensuring that many more children on Mumbai's construction sites will be safe, healthy and educated.
If you agree to support Mumbai Mobile Creches, they assure you that your concern will go a long way toward ensuring child-friendly construction sites in Mumbai.
So join with your friends, colleagues and family and RUN FOR MUMBAI MOBILE CRECHES, and make difference to the life of a Child.
