Strides for Smiles

Fundraising for Dream Mile X - Vibha NJ/PA/NY

Our Health is the greatest wealth we have! One thing this pandemic has made us realize besides the gift of our family and friends is that our health is pivotal. And if we can combine getting healthy with a noble cause, that’s even more wonderful! Join me in this month long event as we run/walk towards achieving a common goal - education for under privileged children. 

The Dream Mile X (DM-X) is the virtual & global version of Vibha’s Flagship fundraiser Dream Mile. The Dream Mile originated in 1998 in Atlanta and then quickly became a permanent fixture on the calendars of runners in various cities in USA and India. This year we are expanding the event to be a global event and it will allow participants to compete from their own cities by walking/running/jogging/hiking in the month-long event; or in a single day event on any one day during the month of September 2020. The event will begin on September 1st and end on September 30th, 2020. 

Since 1991, Vibha has reached out to many children through 250 projects in India and 10 projects in the US.
