AID India - Austin

AID volunteers are running the Decker Challenge 2009 on 6th December 2009 and Austin Marathon and Half Marathon 2010 on 14th February 2010. This is part of our yearly fundraiser called "Run for India". Led by Meghana Deodhar, our fearless leader, we are well on our way to reaching the running zenith (26 miles for some, 13 for others).

Why run a marathon for India? From Vikram's interest in improving math education in Tamil Nadu, to Vinay's desire to give back to the most underprivileged back home, to Bindu's's desire to help environmental projects;, we all have our reasons. But the thread that binds us is the common desire to bring about a positive change in the lives of millions of underprivileged in India.
