"I've witnessed firsthand the life-changing benefits of The Chanda Plan Foundation in action. Providing those with challenges, who struggle with physical pain on a daily basis, with alternative therapies is an incalculable contribution to whole populations of people who don't want to be designated to the sidelines and crave fuller and more active lives. I'm so thankful The Chanda Plan Foundation exists in the world to help all of us climb our own mountains." ~ Erik Weihenmayer, blind adventurer and author
