This Diwali, CRY invites you to make the festival even more special by contributing to our Wishing Tree initiative, centered on transforming children’s dreams through education. Diwali is a time to reflect on our blessings and spread joy, and what better way to do that than by empowering children to continue their education?
The Wishing Tree symbolizes the hopes and aspirations of countless children. Each branch represents a dream related to education—a crucial step toward shaping their future. By choosing a wish that resonates with you, your donation can help a child receive essential educational support, like learning kits or access to STEM education.
Your contribution ensures that children across India can attend school, continue learning, and build a brighter future through education. This Diwali, you can help create a lasting impact by granting children their wishes, strengthening their aspirations to become future leaders, doctors, or teachers.. Plus, you’ll receive a 50% tax exemption under Section 80G of the Income Tax Act.
Together, we can nurture the aspirations of India’s children and help them achieve their full potential. Spread the light of knowledge and opportunity this festive season by donating to CRY’s Wishing Tree and supporting a child’s education!
