A Festive Celebration with a Purpose: Spread Diwali Cheer to India’s Children

Dear Friends,

This Diwali, we invite you to celebrate with us in a way that spreads light far beyond our homes. As we come together on 3rd November, we hope to raise funds for a cause close to our hearts—supporting Child Rights and You (CRY) in their mission to bring joy and opportunity to countless children across India.

Celebrate Diwali Differently: Spread Joy Beyond Our Homes

We know how important it is for children to grow up with the right opportunities—access to education, proper nutrition, and a safe environment. Unfortunately, many children in India face obstacles that prevent them from thriving. That’s why we are supporting CRY, which works across 102 projects in 19 states to bring real, lasting change in children’s lives.

With your help, CRY focuses on:

Education: Ensuring all children are enrolled in school.

Protection: Preventing child labor and child marriage, while helping families find sustainable livelihood opportunities.

Health and Nutrition: Making sure children receive timely vaccinations and sufficient nutrition.

CRY’s Impact in 2023-24:

• 21,14,322 children impacted
• 2,33,967 children in school
• 1,04,683 children participating in collectives where they have an independent voice
• 47,463 children benefitting from digital learning
• 7,605 kitchen gardens promoting nutrition and sustainability

How You Can Make a Difference

At our Diwali celebration, we’ll be raising donations to support CRY’s important work. Additionally, a portion of the funds will go toward organizing a joyful Diwali celebration for the children CRY supports. We would love for you to be a part of this special effort to bring happiness to their lives.

Every donation, no matter the amount, can help ensure that India’s children get the chance to go to school, stay healthy, and grow up safe.

Let’s come together to light up lives and spread joy this Diwali. We’re excited to celebrate with you, knowing that together, we can make a real difference.

With love and gratitude,
Arunima & Alok Gupta
