I don’t like to speak about my donations: Rinku Singh

In April this year, the Uttar Pradesh player donated 50 lakhs INR to build a hostel for underprivileged kids. Talking about this, he said that he doesn’t like to talk about his donations.

“I don’t want to speak a lot about it. But I feel no one should have the financial burden when chasing their dreams of becoming a cricketer. There are many parents who are reluctant because of their financial situations, and that’s why I took a step forward and did whatever I could to help those kids out. I know where I come from, so I try to do my bit to help the community out. ‘Ek na ek din toh upar jana hi hai sabko, paisa lekar kaha jaunga main (One day, everyone will have to leave. What will I do with all the money)? Hopefully, all the parents will push their kids to chase their dreams, because that is how they will get even more motivated to perform better in whatever field they are.,” said the Uttar Pradesh player during an exclusive interview with Revsportz.

The former Punjab Kings player has been named in the Asian Games 2023 squad. This is his maiden India call-up.
