“I am happy that they gave them to us because if they didn’t, we would not have them right now to do homework or our class assignment.”
“I am happy that they donated them to us or else I would be using the same 3 subject notebook for the same classes.”
“Our teachers teach us about accountability. We are accountable for having our materials for school. I didn’t have all three notebooks, I only had 2 to start off. Without the donations, I feel I would be struggling a lot. Now I have 3 notebooks and that’s important.”
“My parents told me to tell those people, “Thank you for their generosity,” so yea thank you.”
“They need so much material to be successful, not just in the classroom. They need to feel they have the necessary tools at home to practice what they learn. Thank you.”

“As the Community School Specialist at Hayward High School, I am responsible for coordinating and supporting programs and activities that support students and their families’ emotional, social, and health needs. Times have been tough for many of our families. We have had the amazing opportunity of working with Rasi Holds Hands providing a monthly food seva here at Hayward High School. They always show up with smiles on their faces, rain or shine!!! Our school community truly appreciates the generosity that Rasi Holds Hands has shown us. I look forward to continuing our partnership this school year. “

“Rasi Holds Hands generous donation has had a great impact on our campus with the student athletes. In the Spring many students were able to get new cleats which allowed them to participate in Spring football and they have continued to let them be a part of our football program. We look forward to continuing to be able to support our student athletes and giving the kids the opportunity to participate in a new sport because of the impact of Rasi Holds Hands.”

“It’s a privilege and honor to write our appreciation for RaSi Holds
Hands, the charity started on behalf of beloved Rantej Singh. I know him through his parents Indu and Indra and their stories of him.
Rantej, as we all know was a talented and giving young man, doing Seva silently and generously. As he has left for his heavenly abode, his family and friends are determined to continue his passion for selfless services through this charity organization. His kindness will live through this nonprofit and we are grateful to have the opportunity to donate to this wonderful organization. We hope our contribution to RaSi Holds Hands will serve more children in need and continue Rantej’s impact on the world.”

“ I do like to read a lot. When Mom told me about the book nook, me and my sister went to check it out and came back with a Greek Mythology book which I love. I would keep visiting the nook as it’s for a good cause and there are good books in there”
