Many health-related causes were the focus of and supported by this Mumbai Marathon and Ratna Nidhi Trust was one of them. The Hindu gave coverage to our disability project which raised 3.5 lakh with the support of 92 runners.

As part of our 'Mission Million Books Project', we are donating reading materials with a vision to bring more variety to their libraries and to help the children develop an interest in reading. One such distribution session happened in Mumbai's Adarsh English School which caters to children coming from the low economic background.

Ratna Nidhi has witnessed the journey of all these kids post 26/11. The journey which they took after losing their loved one and stood strong against terrorism.
