This year, I'm lacing up my running shoes once again for a cause that means a great deal to me.

I have had the privilege of being involved with **Help Smile Trust** for many years, and seeing the positive impact our projects have on individuals and communities continues to motivate me. Taking part in the **Battersea Park 10K Run** is my way of helping to raise funds and awareness for the work we do.

Every step I take will help support:

🏫 **Education** – Expanding schools in rural Gujarat and creating better learning opportunities for children.

📖 **Student Support** – Providing educational assistance and loans to help young people achieve their goals.

❤️ **Rehabilitation** – Supporting the wonderful work of **Navkshitij Rehabilitation Institute** in Pune, which provides care and opportunities for adults with intellectual disabilities.

🩺 **Reconstructive Surgery** – Helping fund life-changing surgical treatment for children and adults with congenital conditions, burns, trauma, and other deformities in developing countries.

I truly believe that small acts of kindness can make a big difference. Whether it's donating, sharing my fundraising page, or simply cheering me on, every bit of support is greatly appreciated.
