Hi, I am Akshata Shivaswaroopa , a student of Class 12th of DPS, Bangalore North. Let me tell you more about this campaign of mine. This campaign is going to help raise funds for children who are suffering from Duschenne Muscular Dystrophy(DMD) , a condition where the muscles begin to degenerate. My friend and classmate Karanveer Singh Anand also suffers from this condition. Karan is a very euphoric, enthusiastic and energetic individual. He is also a consistent A grade student. In fact, he is the inspiration behind this campaign. There are a huge number of children in the country who also suffer from this condition and are as enthusiastic as Karan. But, they don't have the funds or resources to get themselves treated. I am trying to raise an amount of Rs 20,000 to fund the treatment of a child suffering from DMD for an entire year. This has been made possible by DART, a Bangalore based NGO founded by Karan's dad. It made me realise that I must do something to help. I strongly believe that we can help children suffering from DMD and make a difference to their lives. So, please contribute and help me help these children and my friend. As the famous saying goes , "WE RISE BY LIFTING OTHERS" ...
