Ashish Kumar's fundraiser for Vibha Striders

Fundraising for Vibha Striders 2023

Dear Friends and Family,

I am writing to you today to ask for your support in my upcoming half marathon. I will be running this race on June 4th, 2023, in order to raise funds for Vibha, a non-profit organization that works to improve the lives of children in India.

Vibha has been working in India for over 30 years, and has helped over 300,000 children through their programs. They provide education, health care, and other essential services to children who would otherwise not have access to them.

I am passionate about helping children in need, and I believe that Vibha is doing important work. I am excited to be running this half marathon in order to support their cause.

I am asking for your help in reaching my fundraising goal of $1000. Any donation, no matter how small, will make a difference.

Thank you for your support. I know that together, we can make a difference in the lives of children in India.

Sincerely, Ashish

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.
