Tata Mumbai Marathon 2024

Chinmaya Mission believes education has the power to empower, elevate and transform lives. Our education programme has the capacity to create a new-type of leader grounded in excellence and values. We invite you to be at the forefront of creating everlasting impact by supporting the crown-jewel of our education work, our new university. Chinmaya Vishwa Vidyapeeth will offer globally accredited courses coupled with 21st century job skills and practical insights from Indian knowledge systems, including ethics, meditation, and yoga. This blend will ensure our graduates constantly bring extra enthusiasm and originality when shaping our brighter future. Your contribution will go towards building a brand-new state-of-the art campus in Kerala! Your generous donations will also go towards providing scholarships for students most in need and towards improving school infrastructure – toilets, tables, computer labs – in our schools located in the most remote villages of India. There are 88 such Chinmaya Vidyalayas providing holistic education to many students in need. To date more than one million students have found enormous success, strength and happiness from our programme, & gone on to become noble leaders and change-makers. Together let’s create hope, aspiration, boldness and courage in the lives of students for generations to come. Join us and reimagine education! *Indian government’s official categorization of CVV: De novo deemed to be university.

Through all my experience I can see that Chinmaya Mission’s Education Movement, which now includes a university, is what our future needs. Their education strategy involves delivering globally benchmarked education in combination with values-based education. It also brings essential learnings from Indian knowledge systems into the fold, leading to graduates who are unique innovators, leaders and thinkers. This robust combination is a recipe which is core to being a transformative citizen, corporation, society and nation. I genuinely believe that Chinmaya Mission’s education movement has a seismic role to play in our future which is why I encourage you to support me in this campaign.
