Shivani Rajasekhar, the daughter of the Rajasekhar-Jeevitha duo and the '2 States' actress, is proud of herself.  The reason is that she has done her bit for a noble cause, thanks to a Teach For Change initiative.

Speaking about the same, she says, "Teach For Change, which was founded by Chaitanya MRSK, and co-founded by Manchu Lakshmi garu, has been organising a fund-raising event every year for the past 8 years.  Film celebs participate in a ramp walk to support the NGO's noble cause of bridging educational inequality in India.  This year, I had the honour to participate in its event on Thursday.  And I bought a beautiful piece of art for Rs. 1.85 lakhs with my first earning.  I am very glad that I have spent my first earning on the future of kids.  I have done my bit and I am very proud of myself.  I am happy to be following in my parents' footsteps.  I wish that you guys too will come forward to support causes like this."

The fund-raiser was held at Hyderabad's Taj Falaknuma Palace on March 29.  It saw the participation of several Tollywood celebs.
