ABOUT US:
“SERVICE TO MANKIND IS A SERVICE TO GOD” This is a famous quote. But we feel that it’s a duty of every citizen to do the best for the society and make this world a better place to live. It’s not a service it’s a duty.SACHIN’s HANDS – Youth Inspired is a charitable organization formed by a group of motivated and fans of Sachin Ramesh Tendulkar in May 2008. Vision: Make this society a better place to live in!Mission: A little help in whatever possible way to all the needy people.
There are lots of charities, Why one more ???
In every walk of life we meet several people who amaze us, motivate us and inspire us. One such name is Sachin Ramesh Tendulkar, the difference being, that this inspiration spans across several generations.A person who not just made us believe that Indians are good enough to be the best in the world, but actually went ahead and gave us an entirely new set of ethics which help us battle any situation. The teachings were instrumental in starting a new cult, which has now become a rage. Yes Sachinism is the way to a successful, satisfying and more meaningful life.His service to nation is incredible and might take centuries for one to match his inhuman talent and records, but little master is master of all celebrities when it comes to giving back to society and being unselfish irrespective of the richest sportsmen in the country. He has been involved in humanitarian deeds since quite some time and would continue to do his bit to help the underprivileged.
¤ Tendulkar a Successor to Dr. A P J Abdul Kalam in the Board of CARE Hospitals, and the hospital has been of great help to the needy, especially sportspersons of the state. Tendulkar has been instrumental in the hospital taking care of total expenses for treatment of even state level sportsmen and women.¤ Tendulkar has also been lending a helping hand to the downtrodden in Tardeo in Mumbai for over 11 years now by providing clothes and other necessities to 250 children besides taking care of their complete education, including books, notebooks, shoes and school uniforms.¤ Tendulkar has helped over 300 have-nots so far through the Dr. Agarwal Eye Hospital in Chennai since October 2004 to get their cataract and eye grafting operations done. The champion batsman said he was unwilling to talk about this aspect of his as he did not want to seek publicity from these causes.
¤ "Sachin is involved with 'Apnalaya' in Tardeo, Care Hospitals in Hyderabad and Dr. Agarwal Eye Clinic in Chennai, besides the 'Make Wish Foundation', which has been doing a remarkable job for over a decade."Unarguably Sachin Tendulkar is a “silent crusader” when it comes to charity. We have been following him since 18 years and he gave us all moments of joy and happiness that makes us proud to be born in TENDULKAR ERA.Sachin dreams of an India which is more than just hope, and to fulfill it he is actively involved in various programs for social upliftment in various capacities .But since God cannot be everywhere its our responsibility to take the teachings further and ensure that no child remains underprivileged in the country.
There are still lots of places which needs attention. Our motto is to make those places a better place and that’s why we have started this. Sachin's hands starts with a vision that even if a handful of us contribute to the society to whatever extent we can, we can definitely make a difference.
Please do remember that this is not a fan club but a TRUST formed by fans of Sachin inspired by his contribution to the society and following his foot steps. Also this TRUST is no way affiliated to Sachin Ramesh Tendulkar and the acts of the TRUST are purely based on the board and members of the TRUST.
“Small acts of help can make a big difference but helping to make a big difference is not a small act...!”
Achievements :
We planned to help an orphanage (Barath Matha Orphanage)which is giving shelter for about 30 odd children in Chennai this year and collected money from friends and relatives. We collected nearly Rs/-20,000 and donated it to the orphanage. At that time our TRUST was not registered. But only after that we felt that we have to be professional in dealing with such things and contribute to the society in whatever manner possible. Hence as a result we have formed this TRUST.
