Mission Statement

Our Mission is to promote excellence in human endeavor, to develop human resources and to help people achieve success regardless of religion, gender, caste, geographic origin by giving hope to those who may have none. The Foundation is all-volunteer driven with less than 5 percent overhead. While organizing events, we strive to get discounts from our vendors and sponsorships for our awards. These measures keep our expenses down and channel donated funds more towards helping the needy.

About This Cause

The second function is to encourage academic excellence among the financially challenged by providing college scholarships in India.
