Campaign Description
Hello! My name is Rishi Sharma, I am 19 years old and I run 501(c)(3) non-profit organization called Heroes of the Second World War  (heroesofthesecondworldwar.org ).


My biggest heroes are the combat veterans of World War Two and I am on a mission to try and meet and in-depth film interview as many of these men before it is too late so that I can gain their knowledge and wisdom and also an appreciation for how good I have it. These men are my kindred spirits as they are the only people who I truly enjoy talking to and learning from hours on end. I want them to know how grateful I am for they had to endure and I am trying to be an outlet for them to express their recollections and thoughts of their war days in a censor free environment. The interviews are filmed but there is absolutely no commercial aspect this as I give full rights to the veteran and I burn the DVDs for them.  I have been trying very hard to do an interview a day and meeting as many as I can too so that I can absorb as much knowledge and wisdom before it is too late. Because they are dying at such a rapid pace, I have decided to defer school completely after my graduation from HS this past June.
