Thank you for joining the movement and taking on an active role in helping others in need. With more than 180 million illiterate children in India, as a larger community we can achieve extraordinary things through our collective energies.

Beyond supporting Peddling Hope, I hope for your continued involvement on issues of poverty. By becoming a more engaged participant, we can truly achieve long lasting change.
