Dear FRIEND,

I am emailing you to tell you how you can work an hour to make a lasting difference in the lives of underprivileged children in India.

Asha for Education's "Work An Hour" is an international event where people symbolically work an hour on August 15, India's Independence Day, to educate children. They do this by donating an hour's worth, or more, of their salary, anytime between now and September 5, which is celebrated in India as Teacher's Day.

All the funds raised from this event will be directed to six worthy projects (listed below) from different corners of India. These projects will impact the lives of children in a fundamental way and open up previously unavailable opportunities to them. By working an hour, you can help them realize their dreams.

This is the seventh consecutive year for Work An Hour, or WAH as it is popularly known.
