Backing his appeal Priyanka Chopra lends her support to Sonu and calledhim a 'visionary philanthropist'.

?Priyanka shared the video of Sonuwhere he is seen making an appeal for the kids and wrote,

?“Have you heard ofvisionary philanthropists? My colleague @sonu_sood is one such. He thinks andplans ahead. Think this one out carefully because the impact is long-term andit involves children—amongst the many horror stories of the pandemic, this isregarding those children who have lost one or both parents due to COVID-19. Thedisruption, for many, sadly leads to a complete stop in their education due tothe combination of loss and economic factors due to that loss”.

Further adding she wrote, “Firstly, I am inspired that Sonu made thiscritical observation. Secondly, in typical Sonu style, he has also thought of asolution and come up with some suggestions for action. Sonu’s suggestion is toboth the state and central governments to ensure free education for allchildren affected by Covid. Whatever stage of studies they are at—school,college, or pursuing higher studies. The aim is not to allow a pause anddefinitely not for the lack of finance. If ignored, a huge number of childrenwould be left without the opportunity as adults”.

"For those outside govt, I appeal to your compassion combined withgenerosity and be the philanthropists, knock on institute doors or anyone whocan help to make an impact that will matter. Adopt the education of a child ifyou can. I fully support Sonu’s ideas and I will actively work towards findingways to support education because I have always believed that#educationforeverychild is a birthright. And we cannot as a society let thevirus change that”.

Indeed it’s a great initiative by Sonu.

Priyanka Chopra too has started doing her bit she has almost raised morethan 5 crore by her initiative and isn’t stopping soon.
