When there is hope, there is everything! – For Harish Iyer
Learn from yesterday, live for today, hope for tomorrow. ~Albert Einstein
You need to have hope, rest is always assured fine ahead. This is what I have always seen in the mind of Harish Iyer, one of the inspirational persons around, who has always hoped for the a bright future, not for just himself but for every child around.
Here is something about him -
“I started speaking up slowly for animal rights. I then started standing up for myself. I found recognition, and support, and decided to speak up. Sadly, but not to my surprise, I have found many more boys open up to me in anonymity… I help them as much as I can and later direct them to psychotherapists….. I am 30 now. It has taken me years to comprehend that I am not a remnant of my past. I have made a conscious decision to speak about child sexual abuse, because ignorance about sex abuse didn’t help me. And the one who wrote ‘ignorance is bliss’ had the dictum working for him. I cannot be him.”” - Harish Iyer, adult survivor of child sexual abuse!
Harish has been supporting the Arpan Organization and spreading awareness about Child Sexual Abuse, apart from fund collection for the NGO.
They have crossed our target amount of Rs. 1,01,000/- and raised Rs. 1,10,500/- Here is more info – Survivors can become thrivers!

Support the cause, support the people involved. You should not see your child, your brother, your closed one to be a victim of the crime of Child sexual abuse.
