Hamara Bharat Mahaan

The title does sound trite, but this cliched phrase describes better than any other the wonderful spirit of giving that has taken root in India, slow, but sure and growing stronger by the day.

What can we say except 'Hamara Bharat Mahaan', when we hear of ragpickers in Delhi, contributing for the upkeep of the Mobile Health Clinic that visits their slums. More details on the joy of Giving Week web page.

It is 'Hamara Bharat Mahaan' as over 1000 schools register in the Design for Giving contest inspite of the fact that September and october are usually devoted to the end of the term exams in most schools across the country.

It is 'Hamara Bharat Mahaan' as people from the slumdweller to the billionaire join forces to indulge in the true spirit of giving and sharing. With just 5 days to go for the Joy of Giving Week to officially begin, the number of registered participants is growing by the day and we are sure there are many more just forging ahead with the Joy of Giving.
