Click here to pledge an amount or Download the pledge form.

• Over 100 million children in India between 6 and 14 years of age are outside the school system.
• Over 20 million children are child laborers.
  

Statistics like these portray a bleak picture, but you’ll be surprised at how little it takes to make a difference. How little it takes to bring about significant change in the lives of these children. How little it takes to bring a smile to a child’s face.

For a pledge of 100 dollars from you - your family (i.e. parents or wife and kids) get free entries to come walk or run a few miles with us to fulfill million dreams. Please do join us and give them hope and inspiration. We will email you the form to complete the registration process.

Vibha’s mission is to "educate, empower and enable every individual who wishes to make a positive difference in the life of an underprivileged child". We look at ourselves as a medium to enable you to make a positive change in the lives of such children. And, THIS is your chance to give them the gift of education, health, and opportunity. Your chance to give them the gift of what we take for granted—childhood!

Vibha also believes in giving back to the community that it raises money from. This year Dream Mile 2010's local beneficiary is Children's Health Care of Atlanta.
