Comedian Amit Tandon is the latest celeb to join the bandwagon, who will be raising funds for the underprivileged girls from the rural district of Jharkhand.
A source was quoted saying, “All the proceeds from his show in Mumbai, which will be held on March 6, will go to an NGO that works towards providing access to basic healthcare and education to the underprivileged, with a special focus on the eradication of child marriage and adolescent girl child trafficking from society.”
Amit feels it’s his responsibility to do a bit for the betterment of society. He added, “In such trying times, it’s upon us individually to stand by one another. This is a small initiative on my part to lend support to the scores of NGOs that are battling such societal menaces single-handedly. The idea here is to come together as a society and help raise some funds for such a noble cause,” says the comedian, adding that he wants to bring “smiles on people’s faces”.
Amit Tandon hopes that people turn up for his show so that the contribution towards the cause can be fulfilling. He said, “I feel responsible as an influencer for spreading awareness about these problems that everyone knows about, but no one works towards. This is my small way of helping out in my own capacity, and I hope that I manage to get a good response on this initiative so that more such events can be planned and executed by other comedians of our country as well.”
