The Annual Family Forum with the theme of “Salute to Martyr’s” was organized for beneficiaries by Gautam Gambhir Foundation which was supported by Ratnakar Bank Limited. 50 children from 29 families of Martyrs who sacrificed their lives to safeguard country have participated in the event.

On the first day, all participants reached Delhi and a get-to-gather has been organized for the families at Petal Banquet Hall, Naraina in the evening. While honouring the family members Mr Gautam Gambhir, Manager Trustee of the foundation said: “one thing I would like to say is that I am blessed with a fabulous team and I want to congratulate GGF because I have always believed in “walk the talk” as just talking or doing lip service is not going to do any impact in the society. GGF took away a lot of pressure from my shoulder as well. Now we have decided to organise a dinner every year when all kids and families can interact among themselves and at the same time, we can do something about them later on. Last year when we organized the dinner for the kids we took them for an IPL match they enjoyed very much. This year, we plan to take them around Delhi and they can see all the important spots in the city and so hopefully they can enjoy that as well. Further, he added that has been the base of the foundation to help the children with their education and that is the minimum that we can do for them for what the Martyr’s and their families have done. This is the least what we can do and if they can achieve their dreams what will be the biggest satisfaction”.

Mr. Gautam Gambhir interacted with beneficiaries. They shared their views towards Foundation; they said they are very thankful to Mr. Gautam Gambhir for providing them assistance through quality education formal or in-formal. All family members felt glad after meeting him. At the end of the day, everyone enjoyed a meal together at dinner.
