About Me
I have been an active fundraiser since 2010, raising funds for a variety of causes ranging from malnutrition, supporting a hospice for cancer patients, projects on gender equality, to rehabilitation of communities affected by most of the major natural calamities. My most successful fundraiser was during the Covid pandemic when I raised the much needed funds to support United Way Mumbai's efforts to help migrants get back to their hometowns safely. I feel privileged to work in the development sector where opportunities come my way, enabling me to help make a difference in someone's life. I am also very lucky to have friends, family, & colleagues who believe in my fundraising efforts. I have always raised funds whenever there is a challenge in our community that requires all of us to join hands if it must be addressed, in whatever capacity possible. Please support me this time too. Your contribution is invaluable.
Appeal
Last year i raised funds for two projects being incubated by United Way India- SWAHAAR that addresses malnutrition in kids from underprivileged families by introducing millets, our traditional and indigenous grains known for their superior nutritive qualities in their diets in partnership with the ICDS, and GARIMA, the project that focuses on Gender, Diversity, Inclusion and Equity and includes programs that support transgender persons by providing skill training that will adequately empower them for the job market.
I'm happy to share that with your generous contributions, both projects are now flourishing and the seed fund that could be created with your support and the success that the projects could demonstrate, attracted further funding support. Thank you.
This year, we have ambitious plans to do three things-scale up PRAGATI, our school transformation program which is empowering schools with smart classes and improved water and sanitation infrastructure, scale up SAMPANN, an ambitious project that is creating avenues for sustainable income for gig workers, and empowering women, youth and persons from marginalized communities with income generation opportunities and providing them job placement support. Alongside, we are also building capacities within the team to enable greater outreach in communities and new geographies.
YOU can help make this happen! I would be very grateful for your support this year too.
