COVID: Manish Malhotra, Sabyasachi Mukherjee, Abu Jani Sandeep Khosla come forward to support CRY in their endeavor to support children

New Delhi CRY America is organizing a series of exciting online auctions titled Auction4CRY to raise much needed funds for children during this COVID time.

Throughout the year Auction4CRY will be showcasing some amazing paintings, designer outfits, jewelries and sports collectibles.

CRY America is immensely grateful to the world renowned designers like Manish Malhotra, Sabyasachi Mukherjee and Abu Jani Sandeep Khosla for their longstanding support.

Designer Manish Malhotra has redefined and modernized costumes in Indian cinema.

For the past two years CRY has been fortunate to receive beautiful designer sarees from him which have added a lot of excitement to the CRY America Galas.

The beautifully handcrafted saree with zardosi border donated by Malhotra in 2020 has got all our donors excited.

Talking about what drives him to stand up for the cause, Manish Malhotra said, "Child care and protection of their rights must be everyone's responsibility, especially in this troubling time. It is deeply disturbing to see them suffering from the lack of education, health and nutrition, and learn about incidents of crimes against children. CRY's holistic effort in education, healthcare, protection from child trafficking, and child labor is praiseworthy, and I support this model of sustainable change for children."

“I've been donating outfits from my collection to CRY US Galas and in my way contributing to help raise funds for underprivileged children. I encourage everyone to come forward and help every child to live their childhood,’’ he further added.

Sabyasachi Mukherjee is a prominent name in the Indian fashion industry.

He has been a constant support to CRY in the past four yearsand the intricately designed sareesand clutches donated by him has been greatly appreciated by all our donors in the US.

The beautiful threadwork embroidered saree with hand-painted blouse donated by Mukherjee has been included in our online auction and has generated a lot of interest in the online space.

The Abu Jani Sandeep Khosla label holds an unparalleled position in the world of Indian Haute Couture and the beautiful outfits donated by them has helped us take our Galas to the next level.

CRY America is also grateful to designer SameeraFaridiand Almas Tejani from the US who donated beautiful outfits for the event.

Shefali Sunderlal, the President and the Program Director of CRY America said, “‘You’have the power to change children’s futures and your support allows CRY America to ensure that thousands of children are able to go to sleep educated, healthy and protected. Events such as the Online Auction are a great way for us to raise funds. We are so grateful to artists, designer houses and jewellers who donate their items to our Auction for Child rights.”

A big shout out to jewelry houses - Tribe Amrapali, SuhaniPitti, Sangeeta Boochra in India and Nilamand SitalModi, Plaza Jewelers and Shipra Creations in US for donating these beautiful and exquisite jewelry which is loved by all our donors and  supporters in the US.

“We are proud to be associated with these brands which has helped us take the CRY America auction to the next level and amplified the voice of underprivileged children through their gorgeous creations,” Shefali added.
