Welcome to the Registry of Hope.

We think Sohan is fortunate to be blessed with all the basic necessities of life while there are so many forsaken kids in india who are deprived of food, shelter, basic education and parents' love. If you are planning to bring a gift for Sohan, we would request you to instead make a donation to Asha for Education , a non profit organisation providing education to underprivileged children in India. All donations are tax deductible and may be eligible for a company matching program. We have selected the NYC/NJ chapter which is currently funding Child Aid Foundation project in Andhra Pradesh.

Our hearts were full of joy with the arrival of MZ and that only multiplied over the course of the year.

We can't help but be painfully aware that not all children have access to the basics of food, water, clothing, shelter, and education through no fault of their own. For this reason, we hope you'll join us in donating to Asha for Education's Chennai chapter - where MZ's mother and maternal grandparents are from - to scholarships to support a child for a year in an Asha related program. We're hoping to raise $340 USD (or more) to support a child for one year.

In lieu of a gift for MZ, please consider donating so he may continue to be a blessing to us and many others.

I am celebrating my Bat Mitzvah on 2/12/11.
I have had wonderful educational opportunities in my life and would like to help underprivileged children in other parts of the world have a chance at a good education as well. This is why I have chosen Asha for Education as my tzedakah project.
I hope you can contribute to this great cause.
Thank you. Ariele

If we really give it a thought, it is a privilege in life to be able to take small things like <93>ability to go to a school<94> for granted.
We were fortunate enough to have that privilege in life and provide the same for our kid as well.
On the occasion of the first birthday of our son, we would like our guests to think about the same for a moment.
If you were planning on bringing a gift for the occasion, we request you to consider making a small donation to Asha for Education instead.
