Balram Bastia:

We at Inara believe in taking steps that will not only bring effective change in our society and environment but also help those in need. To aid, we came up with fundraising projects to raise funds for collective and individual projects. One of our projects was to raise funds for Balram Bastia, a divyang cricketer from Odisha Divyang Cricketers Association (ODCA), who unfortunately had a bent leg due to polio. Despite this, he never gave up on his dream to play cricket at higher levels. To help him keep up with his practice and better performance for qualifying for the Ranji Trophy, new cricket gear was required, for which we began a fundraiser. This was the first fundraiser Inara had ever organized, and with the support of our volunteers and others, we were able to buy Balram a new pair of cricket pads. This gesture brought immense happiness to him, and he has already started his training and practice for the Ranji Trophy
