Chasing two goals!

This year, I am chasing two daunting goals:

1. I am training to run the 21 kms Delhi Half Marathon on the 21st ofNovember. It is a challenge I am taking up. I would like to prove to myself and the World that I being visually impaired too can run the distance. I need your prayers and good wishes.

2. I also am working towards raising Rs.5 lakhs to support the Eyeway Helpdesk for the blind and the Eyeway radio programme which has been reaching out to hundreds of blind and visually impaired persons across India. Over the past 8 years, Eyeway has touched and changed the lives of many families and individuals who have been coping with the challenges of life with blindness.

I believe that it is small contributions from friends, relatives and associates that can make the big difference.
