 Kalyan  Dutta-Choudhury had been a well-wisher and supporter of Assam 
Foundation of North America (AFNA) and AFNA projects for a long time.  
Dutta-Choudhury passed away recently and I would like to dedicate my marathon 
run for the Tapoban project "In the loving memory of  Kalyan Dutta-Choudhury ". 
I have the fondest memory of  Dutta-Choudhury - Kalyan da used to write various 
stories specially on rituals , practices of lower Assam particularly in the 
Gauripur area.  As I am preparing for the run - I am overwhelmed with emotion,  
filled with sadness , the long term associations spreading over ten years - at 
the same time I am able to do something meaningful  - that we will be able to 
keep the legacy alive ....Please visit the link below

 In 2008, I ran a Marathon to support and raise moneyfor a school for 
underprivileged children in my home state of Assam in India. Itwas a life 
changing experience - the practice and the preparation for the run, 
goingthrough the hurdle, focusing and reaching the finishing line , the race 
taughthow to bring one's best self to every facet of life. The marathon and 
thesuccessful fund raising campaign also showed me how this country America 
standsfor those in need , how much can we do for poor and destitute. This year 
I am running again for a school for differently-abledabandoned/orphaned 
children called ‘Topoban’. The founder Kumud Kalita is asincere and upright man 
who is doing everything he can in his capacity to helpthese children lead 
fulfilling lives. I met him in person this year when I wasvisiting India, 
witnessed some of these children performing on stage andrealized how he is 
turning their disability to ability. 

The residential school building is a two storystructure without an elevator. 
Every day is a struggle for these children inwheelchair who needed to be lifted 
by others. I am running to raise money forconstruction of a lift, an electrical 
elevator which will greatly help thesechildren. I am running 50 KM this year at 
Dallas, BMW UltraMarathon and appealing you to a sponsor for a mile at $100 
each. We willacknowledge each of you and will provide Tax exempt receipt and 
utilizationthrough our Foundation.

It’s going to be a grueling race spreading acrossmultiple cities, but when I 
imagine the cheerful faces of these children, I getmotivated to run those extra 
miles. I am starting from zero, but I am sure Iwill reach my goal of 50 
sponsors with all of you. Today, on this auspicious occasion of Gandhi 
Jayanti,I appeal you to support this cause, let’s all of us together cheer 
thesechildren and change someone’s life for the better. You can contribution
