“It's [Walk for Ummeed] actually changed my life. There is not a day that I don't walk today, whether it's on the golf course or it's on Marine Drive or in CCI or wherever on the road. One walks every single day. And the only thought there is behind this is I'm walking because of Ummeed and for Ummeed. Oh, everything is nice [at the Walk for Ummeed]

I mean, you wake up in the morning, you start walking on the beach, you see the sun rising through the trees. You walk on the waves. I walked without my shoes, I've strung my shoes on my neck and walked in the water. I've gone into the water and swam. There are cows, there are fish, there are fishermen, there are dogs, there are all kinds of stuff.

So, I mean, it's, it's just, it's a great, great thing. You must do it if you've never done it before. It's worth going out there and actually doing something for somebody else, not yourself. And with an open heart trying to raise a little bit of money that goes a long way.” - Anuj Thapar
