ABOUT ME
My name is Niranjana Ganesh Nair. I am 14 years old and in grade 10 at the EuroSchool, Thane. I am a resourceful and dedicated student with demonstrated commitment to work for the benefit of the betterment of our country. I am very passionate about playing chess and developing my culinary skills and have a proven track record of excellence in academics and arts. The willingness to help people in need is what I consider to be my strongest quality.
This is a campaign that will transform the lives of women in rural areas who are troubled with the inconvenient task of walking long distances to get water. The task is time-consuming and very burdensome .The women also spend long hours to get the water. This time that could be used to do something more productive and generate income elsewhere. I was thrilled and surprised to learn about the Water Wheel. This is a simple and revolutionary innovation which is very easy-to-use, can hold up to 45L of water and provides the household with enough water for a day or more.
Please support my campaign and let us together bring joy to more women.

FAQs
Will we get to know the details of how the money was spent?
Yes. After the money has been collected it will be transferred by Fueladream to Rotary Club Bombay Hanging Garden. It will take from 60 to 120 days after that to get details of who the beneficiary was with details of them. Once I get this information from them I shall upload the picture of the beneficiary on the UPDATES section of this campaign. You will then get an alert & can read details about the beneficiaries.
When do I get the receipts?
It takes up to 2-3 weeks after the campaign is closed for the monies to be transferred to the NGO. The receipts will start getting processed about 6 weeks AFTER the campaign is closed and will be sent to you directly.
How does crowdfunding work?
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.
