Dear Sir,
I am a student from the Singapore Management University (SMU).
Currently, I am working on a school project presentation that requires using your photo (https://riseupindia.files.wordpress.com/2008/07/child_labour12.jpg) in the Political Science course. The presentation file will be publishing in an internet site for public viewing.
This photo will be solely used for education intentions and will not be reproduced for any commercial purposes.
I hereby seek your kind approval.
Warmest regards,

Hello, SHERI & CURTIS and EVERYONE from RISE UP, INDIA….and please call me Jas.
First of all, how do I thank you for taking care of our kids, and understanding that no kid or human in this world should be labeled with culture, cast or class. We all are same at the very core-Simple humans who are made-up of piles of emotions 🙂 Please let me know if you need my help with anything. I’ll do all that I can from here to assist your efforts in India.
Thanks so much,
Jas
Sheri & Curtis,
I am Dawn Glessner’s aunt and I want to give my five grandchildren a special gift this year for Christmas; a brother, sister or friend in need. Can your organization offer such a relationship? I am looking for five children who would share their lives with us and allow us to become part of their well being and education. My hope is that by creating a persona relationship between the children, my grandchildren will begin to better understand the needs of others. Someone they can see through a photo, write to and sponsor with needed funds and supplies. I, will be responsible for the costs and will give as much as I can afford in this effort.
I am anxious to hear from you……..
Bless you,
Lynn Fox
