Supporting humanity

Imagine being made to feed your family when you are just five.
Imagine pulling out your child from school because your job can't support your family.
Imagine your children cleaning cars on traffic signals to earn two meals a day.
Outrageous!!! But alas it's true. In fact, the situation is even worse!!! India is failing its rural poor with 230 million people being undernourished. Two million Indian babies die each year before they celebrate their first birthday. Children across the country suffer vexations and anger before going to bed every night.
But as educated Indians, do we help? No, because there's no right medium. Lao Tse once said "Take a step towards your goal. The journey of a thousand miles begins with one step."
It's already high time. Nevertheless, 'We' are here. 'We' are the step. 'We' are the medium. We, the Humanity Foundation, work as a facilitator between individuals who want to contribute and the NGO's. We are a non profit organization believing in addressing the root cause of our problems rather than superficial manifestations. We believe the only way to alleviate and ameliorate ourselves lies in our voters, parents, teachers, investors, neighbors, businesspersons, lawyers, consumers, activists, students, judges, administrators, journalists and politicians alike - overcoming apathy, cynicism and sheer inertia and reconfiguring our priorities to put the less fortunate first.
