Become a sponsor for The Dream Mile. Contact us today if you are interested and we can mail you the sponsorship packet.

Irrespective of the how you wish to contribute, rest assured that your efforts will go a long way in providing much needed education, health care, shelter and renewed hope to a child. Take a few minutes to review the statistics below.

  • Quality education for a child - $120*
  • Rehabilitation of a severely mentally handicapped child - $50*
  • Non-Formal Education for a child - $40*
  • Immunization for a child - $35*
  • Educational materials for a child - $20*
  • Study/play materials for a child in a balwadi - $5*

* Statistics above are annual amounts based on data from representative Vibha projects

As you can see, it doesn't take a whole lot to support a child's education, put a roof above their heads, ensure they are protected against preventable diseases or care for the physically and mentally disabled child.

Please join us in our efforts in making a child's dream come true.
