My request:
I am honored to be a part of this silent revolution with Isha Vidya, a non-profit initiative to educate Rural, underprivileged children
Today, there are more than 770 million illiterate people in the world, over 300 million children who are not enrolled in school. Ninety-eight percent of these children live in developing countries, where extreme poverty prevents them from gaining an education.
I have always wanted to do at least a little in helping make Education accessible to those children who cannot afford it. "Isha Vidhya" has been committed to this goal. Help me raise funds for this initiative. Donate to this cause using the 'Donate' link on this page.
You will see just how much joy and hope and lasting change your scholarship gift will bring to a child or family living in poverty.
Cause:
Full scholarship to educate 10 children ($ 2400)
Sponsoring a student represents a unique way to dramatically touch the life of a child. Each sponsor is matched with a student(s) and encouraged to donate yearly for the child's full education at Isha Vidhya. Sponsors receive regular updates on the student's progress, including letters from the student, photos, and academic progress reports. The school facilitates correspondences between the sponsors and students, and sponsors are welcome to visit their student at school, act as a mentor, and watch as the child grows and blossoms. The scholarship donation amount of (Rs 10000/USD 240/GBP 150) provides tuition, books, notebooks and nutritional health supplements for the scholarship student.
No donation is too small (or too big!) to participate. Many thanks for your support -- and don't forget to forward this to anyone who you think might want to donate too!
