My Nonprofit Reviews

Asha -- an organization that literally gives hope to children in India who don't have the resources or opportunities available to them I joined Asha as a freshman at the University of Ilinois Urbana-Champaign and began volunteering. For the next three years of my undergraduate, I joined the board. Asha volunteers have shown such dedication and passion to the cause of Asha, that with each year we come closer and closer to bringing progress in the educational levels of underprivileged children. The purpose is to fundraise in order to support and promote education for underprivileged children in India, and Asha does this by helping out certain education-related NGOs in India. The funds are collected via marathons, cultural events, donations, and more. A 100% of the money gained is provided to the projects in India, so that they can utilize the money for better resources. The projects team works very hard to evaluate each project for validity, how the funds are being used, and each student's individual progress. This meticulous process really helps funnel the resources not only to the right places, but also ensures the right use of them. I don't believe that any cause can be worked for without passion, and these volunteers have shown true care. The amazing achievements and awards that Asha has received over the years commemorate the milestones reached, and keeps Asha going strongly even today.
