This is Harish.  Harish lives in Bangalore, India and works 18 hours for just $7.50 as a driver to support his Mom.  That's right - $7.50 a day.  The cab company keeps the rest.  HIs mom sells flowers on the sidewalk and works as a cleaning lady to bring in as much money as she can.  Harish and his mom live payday to payday and sometimes have no money for food.

His dad passed away from liver disease when he was a teenager and they had to sell their house to pay the medical expenses.  His brother dropped out of school in the 7th grade to take care of the family but died just a few years later.  Harish and his mom moved into a one bedroom apartment and took on additional debt to help his brother while he was ill.

My family met Harish when we were living in Bangalore for a year.  Harish drove my family for 13 months and over time became part of our family.  He is truly an amazing spirit with a kind heart.  In April he will go back to driving 18 hours a day for $7.50 / day. 

We want to help Harish buy a second hand car.  Owning and driving his own car would change his life.  With his own car his daily earning would triple and his quality of life would drastically improve.

We would be so grateful of we could help Harish make a better life for he and his mom.  If we can raise $5,000 my family will match the funds dollar for dollar so that he can buy a second hand car that will allow him to turn his life around.

Please help.
