I learned about The Miracle Foundation from my International Relations professor at the University of Texas at Austin. I was doing a double major in journalism and international development, which required an internship experience. I soon found myself in a semester-long internship at TMF, and can honestly say that it was the best internship I've ever had. Not only was I learning the ropes of non-profit management on-the-job, but I was part of a dream team. I was constantly blown away by the staff's professionalism, courteousness and passion for their work, and admire how everything they do centers on the rights and well-being of both the children and their Indian staff, as well as the sustainability of the organization on both sides of the globe. Maybe it's the pictures of the children all over the office, or the international mobility of the staff, but not once during my internship did I feel distanced from the TMF kids, though I had never met them in person. I could feel the impact of our work, as if the children were right there. Also, the staff treated me with the utmost respect, allowed me to share my skills in the Hindi language with them, and took a genuine interest in the advancement of my career in development work. They corresponded with my university on my internship's progression, regularly educated me on the workings of TMF in response to all my questions, and even wrote me a recommendation letter to the Peace Corps (I served in the Dominican Republic for two years following my graduation). Upon my return visit to the office, I was welcomed as a family member and updated on TMF's activities, though my internship was long over. I have not yet had the opportunity to travel to India with TMF as part of the ambassadors' team, but I am positive that when I do, it will be even more rewarding than my experience working stateside.

In 2011, I contacted The Miracle Foundation to see if there were any volunteer opportunities available. The very next day, I was walking through the front door being introduced to the entire team. I was greeted by a group of warm, passionate, and intelligent people ready to teach me everything I needed to know about their work and their impact.
Today, I work fulltime at The Miracle Foundation and couldn’t be happier! This organization is transparent and doing things legally. They are dedicated to protect the rights of every child, and put in place interventions that help them realize these rights. Health, education, running water, life skills education, and caregiver training are just some of the things provided to the orphans and their caregivers. Through their innovative NEST program, The Miracle Foundation is able to expand their reach and change the lives of children in India and eventually all over the world.
I am glad to have found an organization that does things right, and has the ability to show and prove the impact of their work through metrics. To work with an organization that gives children a chance, a childhood, and a brighter future is truly inspiring!

I first became involved with The Miracle Foundation in 2009 when I interned with this amazing organization. Throughout the years of volunteering and now working for The Miracle Foundation, I have been humbled by the transparency, dedication, and utmost desire to put the children's rights and perspective as a top priority. I have never met a more driven team that strives to partner with like-minded leadership at our children's homes to change the fate of countless children. The Miracle Foundation strives to help each child and children's home reach their full potential.

The Miracle Foundation is a reputable organization with a fearless and formidable leader. My husband and I have supported them for five years in various ways....including arranging a corporate sponsorship worth $10,000 that was managed professionally and efficiently.

Wow, The Miracle Foundation really puts their money where their mouth is, so to speak. They build and run orphanages in India, and bring existing orphanages up to their high standards of care and education for the children. They do their very best to ensure that the children really are well cared for, that the staff is high quality and well trained, that their (your!) money is used most effectively and efficiently. Great organization all around!
The Great!
I've personally experienced the results of this organization in...
photographs and stories from the volunteers that they send on their many trips to the orphanages. Anyone who wants to can see and experience their amazing work first hand.
