Memories from Past Events
Our CRY Austin volunteers have been active for many years organizing cultural events, art competitions, athletic meets, volleyball, throwball, cricket and CRY walk events for the cause of underprivileged children. A big thank you to Prasanna, Srirangam, Sudha, Keerthi, Harika, Pragya, Raga, Sasi & Vijaya for their ongoing efforts to create a better future for children. 2025 will be the first year for organizing the CRY Gala in Austin and we request the Austin community to make this event a resounding success.
CRY America is a 501(c)(3) non-profit driven by its vision of a just world in which all children have equal opportunities to develop to their full potential and realize their dreams. With the support of over 35,334 donors and over 2,000 volunteers, CRY America has impacted the lives of 796,919 children living across 5,027 villages and slums through support to 90 Projects in India and USA.
