About:
My name is Ravi Varanasi. Travel crazy that I am - when I am not travelling, I love watching Travel shows and reading travelogues. Also recently been bitten by the "running" bug" which I enjoy doing every day!
I feel very strongly about making a difference to the lives of these young farmers (most of them come from families where the father has succumbed to the stress of trying to make ends meet and has committed suicide). The fact that raising INR 1L will provide them with skills for a lifetime is something I can relate to. This will impact not just them but their household and community as these individuals will become change agents. Over a period of time, they will completely transform how agriculture and livelihoods are practiced with greater yields and more income. This is how transformations start.
Our farmers are the bedrock of our nation and a stronger rural community is what will make us a nation to contend with, over the next few decades. I strongly believe that we can help these young girls and boys become scientific farmers and in the process, transform their lives. Please support my campaign and let us together bring light into the lives of these people.
