Hello folks!
Here is a quick update from our side.
We’ve now reached ₹26,66,787. When we started, we had 234 members. Today, that number stands at 453.
We’re grateful for how far this has come. It really does make a difference.
At the same time, we still have a gap to close. Our goal is to reach 1,000 members, which means we need 547 more people to join in. If you’ve been considering it, this is a good time. And if not, even sharing this with others helps us reach those who might.
