Reflections - Looking back at the road we took

Submitted by sankalp on

Sankalp India Foundation did not take roots in a personal tragedy. It was not like someone faced an intense situation on a particular occasion and decided to do something. Sankalp was born as a result of the massive unrest that resides in us. The unrest which arises from the state of things around us. When we see the way the world works around us, with all it's imperfections, prejudice, injustice, corruption and so on, we do tend to get agitated. There is a small rebel inside us which wants a change.

On the World Thalassemia Day

I want to wish the little kids with thalassemia a happy day and I want to mean it too.

Today is the world thalassemia day. All over the world organisations and individuals are celebrating this occasion. It did occur to me that having been involved with thalassemia for 2 years now - maybe we too should celebrate this day.
