Phal Nanda's fundraiser for Vibha Striders 2020

Fundraising for Vibha Striders 2020 Master Fundraiser

Vibha Striders 2020 is raising funds to help address the problem of education of underprivileged children through Vibha's projects.

This is my 4th year volunteering for Vibha. I give my time as a mentor and as a coach for the marathon training program. This year has been especially challenging and rewarding at the same time. With virtual zoom sessions for strength training, warmups and cool-downs, coaches and mentors and volunteers are able to keep the engagement with the trainees throughout. With the actual races being cancelled (SF Marathon was our target full marathon), we had to improvise. The program is wrapping up next month (September) with a "September to Remember 50/50 Challenge" event - in participation with Dream Mile X virtual race program. 

Please donate for this noble cause (read below). More than 98% of the donation goes directly to the underprivileged children. We all volunteer without any pay - purely to help enrich the lives of our trainees, and raise funds for the underprivileged children.

Thank you for reading and supporting the cause. 

Best regards

Phal Nanda & family

Vibha is committed to bringing together both the public and private sector to strengthen infrastructure and provide mechanisms for sustainable access to education. Through Vibha's model of seed, scale, and grow, our projects, as an example, have helped expand public education programs from 15 to 43,000 schools in one state in India. As a result, this success has now become the template to expand to other states.

As Vibha Striders, we believe that moulding young minds will give them the freedom to choose a better life. Every mile we run and every dollar we raise, is another massive step to helping these kids achieve their dreams.
