  • For at least one day during the Challenge all donations of $25 or more (up to $1000 each) will be matched at 15% till the total matching grant of $5000 on each day is used up.

    I am a volunteer for Humanity Trust ,India. We work on health services of the poor & backward people of Backward blocks of the state West Bengal. We have 2 small hospitals and conduct camps all around. It incurs a huge cost and people need more services, that we cant provide due to lack of resources. Would you pls send me some links, through which I may reach some potential resources who can support us for long. Thanks for your precious time.
