Dear Team CRY, I am writing to share my excitement and gratitude as I prepare to run a Half Marathon dedicated to raising funds for organisations that inspire me deeply—including Child Rights and You. Your mission to ensure that every child enjoys their basic rights—education, protection, healthcare, and a safe childhood—resonates strongly with me. I believe that empowering children is the most powerful way to build a stronger, more just society, and I am proud to align my efforts with your cause. Through this run, I hope to amplify your work and encourage more people to support CRY’s vision of a world where children are free to learn, grow, and thrive. Every step I take is a reminder of the resilience and potential of the children you serve. Thank you for the incredible impact you continue to make. I look forward to contributing to your journey and spreading awareness of your mission through my fundraising efforts. With respect and solidarity, Vishal

Dear Team India AI Foundation, As I prepare to run a Half Marathon to raise funds for causes close to my heart, I am proud to include the India AI Foundation for Social Good among the organisations I support. Your vision of harnessing artificial intelligence responsibly to solve pressing social challenges—whether in healthcare, education, disaster response, or inclusion—deeply resonates with me. As a cybersecurity architect and advocate for ethical technology, I believe AI must be guided by values of fairness, transparency, and accessibility. Your work embodies that principle, ensuring that innovation serves humanity rather than leaving communities behind. Through this run, I hope to amplify your mission and encourage others to see how technology, when aligned with ethics, can transform lives at scale. Every kilometre I run is a step toward a future where AI is a force for equity and empowerment. Thank you for leading this important movement. I look forward to contributing to your journey and spreading awareness of your impact through my fundraising efforts. With respect and solidarity, Vishal

Dear Carol & Team Jeevan Asha, As I prepare to run a Half Marathon to raise funds for causes that inspire me, I am proud to include the Jeevan Asha Charitable Society among the organisations I support.

I believe that small acts of compassion can rebuild lives and strengthen communities, and your initiatives embody that spirit of service. Through this run, I hope to amplify your mission and encourage more people to see the importance of supporting vulnerable communities. Every kilometre I run is a step toward restoring hope and creating opportunities for those who need them most. Thank you for the incredible impact you continue to make. I look forward to contributing to your journey and spreading awareness of your work through my fundraising efforts. With respect and solidarity, Vishal
