Ray of Hope International Foundation (a 501(c)(3) tax-exempt organization) is a global charity focused on raising funds for underprivileged children and families in the USA and India. Ray of Hope will also develop its own programs to have a strong social impact.
Our mission is to support a wide range of charitable organizations and special causes in targeted communities to foster, enhance, and empower socio-economical, educational, financial, cultural, creative, and intellectual growth of the underprivileged by focusing on utmost specific needs and projects.
The foundation was launched to make a direct contribution to specific needs and programs that are key issue areas in the world, especially in India. Some examples of these issue areas are access to quality healthcare in rural areas, sanitation & hygiene, leveraging technology as an enabler, etc.
Additionally, for smaller Non-Governmental Organizations (NGOs) in India who are not registered in the USA, Ray of Hope will be the gateway to wonderful supporters, donors, patrons, volunteers and friends like you to help them advance their impactful social causes.
This organization is governed by a Board Of Directors and supported by a dedicated core team that brings vast experience to help this organization grow.
