What We Can Do!

I just wrote an article for an NGO called Smile Foundation for which I had to do a little research on the organisation. What they do, how they work and what benefit it causes.
Well, whenever I tend to make an research What,How and Why always comes to my mind. What I think is right what I share here.

Infrastructure
Research has proved that our country has 53 billionaires; the fourth highest in the world. But the same country has over 3 million children living on the streets.Among the world’s 10 richest people, four are Indians. On the other side, 17 million Indian children work as labourers.
India’s economy is galloping around 7% GDP growth. But also, 2 million children die before their first birthday due to lack of immunization and medical facilities!

There are many other aspects that India needs to struggle with for example AIDS, Cancer, Domestic Violence, Slum Areas, Economic unbalance, etc.

Like they say every coin has its other side, the other side is a little bit disturbing.Whenever I have my evening meal, imagining that some children out there didn't even had their lunch is something to worry about. There are many foundations that work towards these problem, giving underpriviledged children what they deserve and helping them together, preventing AIDS with proper knowledge, helping those people who don't have enough capital to pay for their own medicals and other problems.

Examples
Some of the most popular Organisations in India are Asha for Education, Smile Foundation, Nav Shrishti, Awaaz Do, Gram Vikas,  Arpan Foundation, Centr for Old in Need, Charitable Care Foundation, etc.

What Can We Do?
Poeple can always donate money to such noble causes. If you can't donate money the one thing you have is time, you can volunteer your services from your city doing whatever one can do towards our country. I am visiting Care Foundation next week to see what I can do. Are you ready?
