The #ChangeStartsWithYou campaign reflects the spirit of the holy month of Ramadan which brings together family and friends to spread joy and happiness. However, many families struggle to celebrate the spirit of festivities as they are battling for life in the hospital and the pile of medical bills is their growing concern. The campaign aims to focus on bring change in people's lives by the act of kindness and intend to help others in need.
The story of togetherness and helping others in need is told with a heart-warming narrative. The video showcase the story of two young kids who writes letters to each other. However, one grows concerned when he failed to receive a reply from his friend. Later he finds out his friend is in the hospital and struggling to pay hospital bills. He shares his concern with his mother to aid his ailing friend and support the family. The young boy's mother decides to help the family by starting a medical fundraiser on Ketto.org.
"The spirit of celebrating Eid is incomplete without an act of kindness. The campaign #ChangeStartsWithYou beautifully captures the essence of festivities, how one can be a force for good and can bring change in people's lives by doing small gestures. Thousands of families struggle to celebrate festivals as they are battling for life in the hospital and the heap of medical bills continues to haunt them. The campaign aims to focus on bringing change in people's lives by the act of kindness and intention to help others in need," said Varun Sheth CEO & Co-founder Ketto.org, commenting on the campaign.
