THE BACKGROUND : 


There are many budding athletes and sportsmen/women who come from low-income homes and need support to fund their passion for sports. It could be cricket, football, badminton, TT, athletics etc. These children (boys and girls) from underprivileged homes can shine only if they are able to get someone to help them. Sports gives them an outlet to focus their energy, gives them confidence and also a huge amount of respect and admiration in their society/ area/ slum etc.

The slums of Nehru Nagar and Ambedkar Nagar in Mumbai are a home to a lot of young talented children who need our help. The NGO - Oscar foundation works to making them sports dreams come true. Support this campaign and help bring their dreams come true.

Once these children move up the rankings the cost of equipment also becomes higher. So for example a Table Tennis (Racquet) from a brand like STIGA (its a Swedish brand) costs between INR 12000 to 20000. Its light (made out of balsa wood), great for spin and attack and makes a big difference to the quality of ones game. The other high quality racquets come from a brand called Butterfly. (Japanese brand)


How can these children dream to own one ?

THE INITIATIVE

We are a group of teenage students from the Jamnabai Narsee International School (JNIS) in Vile Parle, Mumbai. We have come together to support the ‘Sports Are For Everyone’ (S.A.F.E) Fund that was started by our classmate, Dev Jhaveri who is 15-years-old. 

Through this campaign, we aim to support young talent by giving them the necessary high-quality sports equipment for various sporting events. We have identified athletes who really need our help to take their skills to the next level. These talented children come from underprivileged homes in the Nehru Nagar slums (Juhu) of Mumbai. This will be a blessing to them and their families. They have worked extremely hard, day and night, to achieve their dreams and with a little push from you all, these dreams can turn into realities.

This campaign is being done in partnership with the Oscar Foundation.

All funding has 80G tax benefits.

EXAMPLE OF CHILDREN WHOSE DREAMS CAN BE FULFILLED :



ABOUT ME:


My name is BHOOMI GOTHI. I am 15 years old and in Grade 10 at JNIS.

I have undertaken this initiative to support talented children who excel at sports. This campaign aims to target children living in the Nehru Nagar slums of Mumbai. Just because they come from underprivileged families does not mean that they should be denied a chance to pursue their dreams.


These children have worked extremely hard to achieve their dreams and with a little push from us, these dreams can turn into realities. Some of them were forced to drop out because their families could not pay for their sports education.

It’s our duty to step up and support these budding athletes.

Please support my campaign and let us together bring confidence and change into the lives of these athletes and their families.
