About:
My name is Manan Shanker and I am in Grade 9 at THE SHRI RAM SCHOOL, Aravali, Gurgaon.
I have undertaken this campaign because I think being able to impact the life of a needy child (who possibly is my age or younger) by funding their education and training at the academy to be a professional footballer for my country is too good an opportunity to turn down. This is being done for the students who opted for the residential program at Bhaichung Bhutia Football Schools in Gurgaon. There are 17 kids who are part of this program. All of them are coming from a very poor background from different parts of the society but have immense talent and passion to be a top-class footballer.
The school takes care of their stay, food, education, training, and other costs. The cost to take care of each student would be approximately INR 30000 for a month.
As an individual, I am trying to raise INR 30000 to impact a student for a month. Let us make a difference together. If we collect more fund’s we could together transform the lives of more children and for a longer duration.
