Unmesh Jadhav on Asha for Education's run for a cause

October 4, 2012

It's time for our Global Activism segment. Each Thursday, we highlight a person who decided to make the world a better place.

When Chicago's Marathon gets underway on Sunday, runners of all backgrounds will have set their goals, but those running for Asha for Education share a common cause - to raise money for underprivileged children in India.

Unmesh Jadhav from Asha for Education tells us how the group trains runners in seven US cities, and this year has 100 participants running in the Chicago Marathon.
