Radhika walks for a cause

Fundraising for Dallas Vibe 2020

Dear friend:

One of my goals for 2020 is to create an impact on the world around me. This is why I’m walking the ramp for Vibha.  

Did you know?  While elementary school enrollment levels in India have touched historical highs (97%), it drops significantly (to 56%) by the time a child reaches senior secondary level.  And of the enrolled students only 70% on an average make it to school every day. Learning outcomes are also poor - per the 2018 Annual Survey of Education Report only a quarter of all third graders surveyed are at grade level in terms of math and reading skills, while only half of all children surveyed can read and less than a third can do basic arithmetic. 

At Vibha we want to enable solutions to problems like these. Our volunteers are constantly on the look out for scalable, sustainable and replicable models that can meaningfully address the root cause. Outcomes matter, and the bar is always set high for trust and transparency, one that was recognized with the 2019 Top Rated Award from GreatNonProfits and the 2019 GuideStar Platinum Seal, which puts Vibha in the top 0.1% of over 2 Million listed non-profits.

The efforts of Vibha currently empower almost 2.3 million children in India. We can't do it without your love and support. 

I’m taking part in a fashion show while also raising money for underprivileged kids at a show called Vibe 2020 on February 29th at The Grand Center in Plano TX.  Will you join my movement and help me send 60 kids to school next year?
