RESPONSIBLE HUMAN MISSION in brief: We believe that the mission to help someone and make their life better must be self-driven. It would help if every well-earned person could contribute just a small portion to reverse the inequalities present within our society thereby improving the overall literacy, livelihood, health, and prosperity for all. It is our responsibility to provide the less fortunate with the minimum necessities to allow them to pursue a dignified life. People those who uphold humanity over the polarising ideologies can enrolled under Responsible Human Mission. RHM REGISTATION: Obtain an RHM Registration once your booking is confirmed.
