Hello friends and family! As many of you know, I have been raising funds for Association for India's Development (AID) via their Bay Area Run for India (BARFI) program for many years now. This year I am taking a big step forward by running my FIRST FULL MARATHON. This involves running 26.2 miles over 5-6 hours in San Francisco. I will be training for 4+ months with the amazing BARFI team to achieve this goal. It will be a dream come true for me. It's been a lot of sweat and sore legs as my training enters the last phase and the miles go up. I am super excited and nervous as the D-day draws near!

While I achieve this personal milestone of mine, I also hope to contribute to AID's fundraising efforts. AID does amazing work in multiple fronts such as education, agriculture, human rights, climate change, etc., primarily in rural and tribal areas, through its vast grassroots network. In the last couple of years, it has also added Covid relief to its umbrella of projects. I have personally met and interacted with AID's wonderful volunteers. I truly believe that the dollars raised go to the right places. More info on AID's projects can be found at https://aidindia.org/. Please don't hesitate to contact me for more information.

This year I hope to raise at least $100 for every mile I run in the SF Marathon. Please offer your support in these critical times. Let's together make a difference!
