The Sachin Tendulkar Foundation (STF) has joined hands with the Gates Foundation and the Government of Meghalaya to work towards a “healthier future for children”, the cricket legend announced on his official X handle on Thursday.
“A step forward in our journey as Sachin Tendulkar Foundation, Gates Foundation and the Government of Meghalaya partner to work together to support a healthier future for children. As we spent time with the lively communities of Meghalaya, we were reminded that real change takes root when compassion and action come together. The strength of children, the resilience of families, and the dedication of local teams continue to inspire us as we embark on this journey with a shared vision,” the Master Blaster posted.
It was in 2023 that Sachin and his wife Anjali met Bill Gates during the latter’s visit to Mumbai. They found common ground in their thoughts on philanthropy and child health giving shape to a collaboration between the Sachin Tendulkar Foundation (STF) and the Gates Foundation (GF) to support holistic growth of children, according to a release from STF.
