Did you know that 844 million people across the globe don't have access to clean water? In May 2020 I’ll be traveling to Colombia with WaterAid, an international organization dedicated to bringing clean water, toilets and hygiene assistance to the poorest and most marginalized communities across the globe. After several days trekking to the ancient, Lost City of Tayrona, I’ll be visiting and volunteering with WaterAid in indigenous, Wayuu communities in La Guajira, Colombia. For the past 3 years I've served as a board member of Wateraid. I've seen first-hand how my time and money have directly made a life-giving difference in the health, social enablement, and upward enablement of so many people. Please consider making a donation to my page today. Gifts made will directly support the communities in Colombia I’ll be working with on my trip. The Indigenous Wayúu live in dispersed rural and marginalized communities with very limited access to services, where only 16% has access to water and a mere 4% to basic sanitation. Currently, it is estimated that 60% of the Wayúu population suffer from malnutrition and roughly one indigenous child under 5 has died of causes linked to malnutrition every week over the past 2 years. WaterAid is working to change this, and with your help, I’ll be making a real difference in the lives of many on my trip with WaterAid.

I am running in the TCS 10k run 🏃‍♂ in Bangalore on May 19th to raise funds for Isha Vidhya. I have been raising funds for almost three years now. The process of donation is very transparent. Isha Vidhya regularly sends out performance reports of the child you are linked with and also success stories of the children in various competitions. It has been a beautiful experience. ☺ Isha Vidhya schools provide high quality education in English medium. The focus is on holistic development of the child – Yoga, sports, arts, crafts, environmental awareness, are all part of the curriculum. These children belong to the poorest segment of society where they are typically the first generation in their families that is receiving education. Their parents are in most cases daily wage earners/farm labourers, tea shop owners, fishermen etc. Here’s a video about Isha Education: https://www.youtube.com/embed/b057kacdFbQ Please note : ₹ 27,500 Supports full scholarship (books, tuition fees, transportation, uniform, and noon meal) for one child for a year ₹ 16,000 Supports books and tuition fees for one child for a year ₹4200 Supports noon meal for one child for a year / general donation (any amount) or you could contribute any amount you wish to .

On May 3rd Cyclone Fani, the strongest storm to hit India in 20 years, made landfall in eastern India. The storm has impacted over 1.2 million people in India who were evacuated from low-lying areas. We invite you to join us in supporting the Cyclone Fani Disaster Relief and Recovery Fund. Through a single donation to the Fund, you can help provide short-term and long-term response and recovery to multiple organization initiatives. Our Fund approach is informed by expert and local recommendations, based on up to date information from disaster philanthropy and nongovernmental organization networks. The Fund's strategy is similarly dynamic and responsive: as information on local communities needs becomes available, we will update the organizations in this Fund, directing donations towards specific organizations doing work in the areas most affected. We have initially selected organizations that are on the ground assisting with immediate relief needs, including rescue efforts, medical assistance, and providing access to clean water, food and shelter. Our approach is primarily informed by the Center for Disaster Philanthropy. Photo Credit: Orrissapost.com

Leones Naranjas is a non-profit Civil Association, which was born as a sports project and which has now been transformed into a social inclusion project through sports, with education being one of our main objectives. We want our children out of the street to prevent risk behaviors (such as drug, bullying, anxiety, eating disorders, intra-family violence, gender violence, etc), and we want our childrens to be able to finish their preparation studies (elementary, secondary and high school), in order to give them the opportunity to access to university studies (degree studies). Very ambitious objective, taking into consideration the socio-economic reality that most of our players' families live today. But we will work tirelessly to achieve this goal, above any sporting goal.

We’ve known for a long time that the balance of nature has been disrupted. This disruption has resulted in the greatest rate of extinction since the loss of dinosaurs more than 60 million years ago. This year join us in supporting the Earth Day 2019 - Protect Our Species Fund, which comprises organizations that aim to slow the rate of extinction and protect threatened and endangered species. These organizations focus on everything from protecting endangered species to pushing for policy changes that position the best interests of the environment and biodiversity as priorities.

WHAT IS METASTATIC CANCER? Tumor metastasis (from the Greek “change of place”) is the movement of tumor cells from the site where the cancer began, to grow in other sites of the body. It is a complex process that is only partially understood today at the biochemical and molecular levels. When a cancer patient wakes from surgery and asks “Has it spread?”, they are asking if the tumor has metastasized. For many cancers, surgery and radiation therapy remove or destroy the the primary tumor. It is the spread of cancer cells to other (secondary) sites and their growth in these sites that can contribute to some cancer patients’ sickness (morbidity) and deaths (mortality).

Children in every country, every culture, at every social and economic level are at risk of violence including physical and emotional abuse, sexual harm and exploitation, and neglect or deliberate deprivation. Save the Children has made it their mission to ensure that vulnerable children are protected. And AppDynamics has now committed to this cause. Jeremy Duggan, AppD’s General Manager in EMEA, is a longtime advocate for children’s well-being. He is now leading another charge -- Climb Higher -- to allow children to climb to their highest potential. Jeremy and his son, Tommy, will take on two treks on two continents, with one cause in mind: helping children thrive across the globe. They’ll climb Huayana Picchu in May 2019 and Mt. Kilimanjaro on September 14, 2019, all the while raising funds and awareness for the work Save the Children does globally. The goal is to raise $75,000 USD by the end of September 2019. Join us by supporting this cause and sharing with your networks. Donations from Cisco employees will be doubled by Cisco’s Matching Gifts Program. Let’s make this happen! 2 treks, 2 continents, 1 cause: helping children thrive across the globe.
