CRY Walk 2014 is being organised across 20 cities, including New York, New Jersey, Bay Area, Los Angeles, San Diego, Seattle, Boston, Chicago among others. The event comprises 5k non-competitive walks, runs and activities for children.

CRY America has thus far ensured lasting change in the lives of 450,832 children living across 2,642 villages and slums through support to 70 Projects in India and the USA.

"This impact has been possible only because of the support we have received from 20,885 donors and 2000 volunteers. If we all come together and address children's issues with a sense of urgency, then no child will remain illiterate, malnourished or exploited," Sunderlal concluded.
