➢ What is the fundraising goal for yourself (if 20 people you know, give 500 rupees each, that is 10,000! No amount is too small). As you speak and start raising awareness about the plight of children who are trafficked, people will want to do what they can to help and join in the cause.
Answer: According to me, fundraising goal will be highly appreciating and volunteering basis, I will reach out to as many people as possible, and make my fundraising campaign with no certain fixed level of monetary help but it will start with minimum value of 30rs. To 500rs. The upper monetary amount is not fixed but more monetary assistance will be appreciated

➢ What else is important for them to know about? Think about the webinars you attended, the speakers you heard from, and the films and videos you watched through this program.
Answer: According to me The, fundraising is not just all about money that can eradicate poverty or vicious circle of Child labor and Trafficking, it will be just be a volunteering help towards the poor children who are being rescued and keep in safe place for their education, food, clothing, etc. this is my main motif for the fundraising, The more important thing that they need to know is, Why I am collecting this monetary assistance? and Why my awareness program is against child labor and trafficking which is important for our Indian Society? And will also say my webinar experiences that how difficult a child labor rescue mission takes place, what all difficulties that Kailash Sir faced when he himself went for a rescue mission, where he rescued 24 girls from roman circus at the danger of his life. He even faced various obstacles from our society, he was badly injured and went for hunger strike for the voice of saving those girls working in Circus. I will also point out of various KSCF people story who are working for child rescue mission, From last Webinar experiences I will share the story of, a girl from Okhla Delhi, Nuzhat, only 13 years old who is tremendously working in her area against child labour, along with her friends, her works such as Tobacco free Shops, and Child Labor free areas. Various Others such Chotu, and Raju, from Bihar etc All this People all over India are working tremendously to make India Free from Child Labor. It’s now high time for us to react rather than just sit and watch, what we see in media, We, should come out with our voice and work sense to do something better for our society and the underprivileged children in India. To make India a Child Labor free Nation.
