Hi everyone, my name is Piya and in September I will be turning 16! Throughout my life, I've been blessed to receive everything that I needed or wanted. One of the things that I'm most grateful for is being able to receive a great education since so many kids across the world don't even have a school in their town. That's why instead of receiving gifts for my birthday this year, I would like to hold a fundraiser to help my dad's old school in India. His school was in a rural part of India, known as Khambhaliya, and many kids there struggled to afford basic school supplies that we all take for granted, such as textbooks, notebooks, and even pencils. One of my dad's teachers, Boda Sir, was incredibly impactful to my dad's education, and he is still very active at my dad's old high school, currently named S.N.D.T High School. I would like to donate all the money that I collect to the trust that he works with, which will help the high school and students in need of school supplies. If you are able to contribute, I would greatly appreciate it, but you are by no means obligated to! This fundraiser means a lot to my family and me, and even a small donation could make a difference! Thank you!
