Tata Mumbai Marathon 2024

The objective of Isha Vidhya schools is to make quality education accessible & affordable to the rural poor, currently runs 9 schools in Tamil Nadu & Andhra Pradesh. The schools presently have 6415 children, with approximately 60% students on free education supported by donations under a scholarship program, while the rest pay a nominal fee.2015-16 could be a landmark year as we are hoping to complete critical infrastructure aggregating about 2 crore including classrooms, compound walls, school buses, computers & sports equipment thru Mumbai Marathon. This will ensure all major infrastructure needs of Isha Vidhya schools are completed by this year. So next year onwards we can focus on growing the Govt School Intervention programs quite significantly or building a new IV school in a new district.In the current year, Isha Vidhya requires to build 11 classrooms, 19 school buses, provide for scholarships and support the 56 Government schools that have been adopted. In addition to the above, approx 700 new children get admitted every year who require scholarships over and above the existing children.Isha Vidhya schools are run largely by volunteers and hence cost of fund raising is very low (<2%).Every rupee you donate will be put to effective use. With the support of generous donors like you, I have been able to touch the lives of a few little children who were otherwise deprived of that one chance at decent living.
