Dear Gentlemen / Ladies,
My name is Pawan Pandey. I am from INDIA. We are a Nation of more than 1 Billion peoples.
We have seriuos problems for our childerens / students for the part of Growth in Society. Because, we are very big nation & society is scattered un-uniformly across but development happens in few of the cities.
This led to frustration among various students as majority of them can’t afford to be in bigger cities & hence declines start , and problem for the nation starts. Moreover, politicians are all same , worldover. No focus on ground development + added by corruption among themselves.
I am holding strong belief to start a amall centre which guides our people for what they can do & be inclusive for their nation & career growth. I want them Not to feel Neglected. I have various thoughts , as we move forward in progress.
To support my cause, I am looking for support – technically & financially. Please respond , even if you cannot help me . At least your words, will grow the fire in me, for the cause.
Warm Regards
Pawan
INDIA
