The GOS Mary Clubwala Jadhav School in EGMORE, Chennai was started in 1968 with the aim to provide education and all-round development to underprivileged girls. The school presently has about 500 students. Supporting both English and Tamil mediums, the school educates girls from the neighboring areas and 45 destitute and orphan girls of the GOS Seva Samajam Girls Home (that is on-campus). It has classes from Grade 1 to 12.
This is a government-aided school until Grade 10. After this, students do not receive any support. Even during the COVID-19 crisis, classes for Grade 11 & 12 are being taken through WhatsApp & other online media. The funding from this campaign will help the girls of the Samajam Girls Home & the students of Grade 11 & 12.
Your funding can impact and change the lives of students like her.
My name is Tejaswini . I am 15 years old and a Grade 11 student at CPS GLOBAL, ANNANAGAR, CHENNAI.
I have undertaken this campaign because I think being able to impact the life of a needy child (who possibly is my age) by giving them education for a year would be incredible.
The fact that just INR 10000 can fund the education of a student for a year is something that made me want to do this even more. Please fund my campaign as your funding will have a profound impact on a child’s life. This will not just educate them but give them confidence, a livelihood, and transform their lives and their family's lives. These girls come from very poor homes and are usually first-generation learners ( ie their parents typically cannot sometimes even read and write). Education is the only tool for them to get out of the vicious cycle of poverty which typically plagues such families.
Let us make a difference together. The more we raise the bigger impact and transformation we can make.
Established in 1923, Guild of Service is one of the oldest social service organizations in India. The primary focus of the organization is education to all. Working in diverse areas such as general and vocational educational, home for the destitute, mentally and physically differently-abled, health, welfare, and rehabilitation; the Guild of Service reaches out to the economically weaker sections of society especially children and women.
It spearheads and co-ordinates the progress and performances of over 22 units and projects in Chennai and 16 affiliates spread across Tamil Nadu, Andhra Pradesh, Karnataka, and Kerala. The affiliates are independent entities, which share the vision and mission of the Guild of Service.
Over the last 97 years, the various projects of the Guild have benefitted lakhs of children, women, and differently-abled from the economically backward sections of society by providing them suitable assistance to make them responsible and financially independent citizens.
Funding for this campaign is eligible for tax breaks as the NGO is a registered trust and you can avail of benefits under section 80G of the IT act. Foreign funding is accepted too.
To ensure that there is complete transparency I shall get a report from Guild of Service (this takes between 2 to 3 months usually after the funds are raised & transferred to them) telling me who benefitted from the funding. The details will then be posted on the UPDATES section of my campaign and will be in a format like the one below. As soon as I post an update, the platform will send an SMS and EMAIL alert to all the funders - i.e. to you. Click on the link on the email and you can read about which child benefitted. That's transparent right.
The below image is an example of the FEEDBACK FORMAT that we will be shared with all my funders.
Yes. After the money has been collected it will be transferred by Fueladream to GUILD OF SERVICE (GOS). It will take from 2 to 3 months after that to get details of fund use. Once I get this information from them I shall upload this on the UPDATES section of this campaign. You will then get an alert & can read details about the beneficiaries.
It takes up to 2-weeks after the campaign is closed for the monies to be transferred to NGO. The receipts will start getting processed about 4 to 6 weeks AFTER the campaign is closed and will be sent to you directly.
Crowdfunding in India is a relatively new concept & is growing very quickly.
It’s a concept that allows a large number of funders (like you) to fund an idea or a cause or event by giving small amounts of money online. Fueladream.com is a crowdfunding platform in India that allows for such pooling of funds. You can fund innovations & ideas on FuelADream and be the first to get these products or make them come true. You can also do a good turn by funding charities and causes through crowdfunding. When you fund a charity it’s more like a donation & you get small innovative rewards like a shout-out on an FB page or a thank you email from the beneficiaries.
