[edit] Beneficiary Profile
Gramin Shiksha Kendra (GSK)school was established in 2003 in Sawai Madhopur, Rajasthan by a group of villagers and external development professionals working together on social development issues. Vibha's funding since 2005 has been crucial in supporting operational costs needed for the teachers' salaries, learning materials and other administrative expenses.
All funds raised from the event will go towards funding projects like GSK.
10% of the proceeds will be donated to Big Brothers Big Sisters of the Greater Twin Cities. Anderson Elementary School in Minneapolis will be the direct beneficiary of this donation.
