“The importance of tigers for the survival of all other species including human beings struck my mind when I joined ‘Kids for Tigers’. Since then the feeling that the magnificent animal was in dire crisis made me restless and the urge to do something for the big cat kept on growing,” said Madhav.

In order to earn this amount, Madhav did not mind polishing the shoes of guests visiting his house and dusting houses in his building. “I used to polish shoes for Rs5 and even dust houses. Though I charged Rs 5 for polishing shoes, I earned the maximum amount from this when I had a guest from USA. He gave me $5 for polishing his shoes,” added Madhav.[link]

From someone that youn, this is exemplary. If more children are allowed to follow their passion and help doing good to the larger world, we would have solutions to a lot of problems tha adults have failed at.
