This crowdfunding initiative of mine is a campaign that is being done by me and my colleagues at ROTARY BANGALORE INDIRANAGAR to raise funds that will help educate brilliant students who come from economically stressed families. This will help them build careers and get them out of the vicious circle of poverty that has plagued their families for generations. This is being done in the city of Bengaluru.

These funds are to educate daughters and sons of farmers, maids, daily wage labor, auto drivers and transform their lives. The focus is mainly on educating them from 11th/12th grades onwards till the final year of college.

This typically costs INR 20000 per annum per student for a 5-year period on an average. What I am doing is raising a corpus of INR 2.5L which will generate an interest amount of approximately INR 20000 per annum for life in a fixed deposit. This will help us educate a students every year for LIFE. The funds we raise go to Rotary Bangalore Indiranagar which is a non-profit and any donations you make will have 80G tax benefits.

HELP ME RAISE INR 2,50,000. THE INTEREST FROM THIS AMOUNT WILL FUND THE EDUCATION OF BRIGHT CHILDREN YEAR ON YEAR FOR LIFE.

The Rotary Bangalore already funds 270+ students per annum but a large corpus fund will help us fund more and more children.

The money raised, will be given to Rotary Bangalore Indiranagar (RBI). We will also get details of which student will benefit from this. I shall then post an update on this campaign to let you know which student benefits from this.

CASE STUDIES : 

Lets educate more Manjuntha's and Ramba's and transform their lives.  Join me in this journey.

ABOUT ME & THIS CAMPAIGN

My name is Ranganath Kuntumalla (Ranga to all my friends) and am a resident of Bangalore. I love my golf and carnatic singing and eating out. Also recently been bitten by the "helping" bug" which I enjoy doing every day as i have made it by mission to impact the lives of others.

I feel very strongly about making a difference to the lives of these young students who come from financially stressed families. The fact that raising INR 2.5L will provide bright students with a scholarship year on year for LIFE is a transformational idea for me. This will impact not just the student but their homes. This will allow the bread earner in the family to possible educate another child, provide better food on the table, lead to less stress at their homes in the short term. In the long term these students will build careers and get their families out of the vicious cycle of poverty.

These students also become change agents, since they know that someone helped them along the way. The PAY IT BACK in some way or another as they will help other needy students too and in the process our world will become a much better places. The youth are a key element of the growth of our nation and a larger  community of educated youth is what we want. I strongly believe that we can help these young girls and boys become better citizens and people in the process.

Please support my campaign and let us together bring light into the lives of these youngsters.

We are raising money to cover the annual education cost of one needy student for LIFE. With this money in the bank, the interest will generate enough funds to educate one student for a year for LIFE. The smallest amount you contribute will help them on their journey to change the economic well-being of their families. Once the campaign ends updates will be posted to keep the funders abreast of which student benefitted and got a scholarship.

FAQs

Will we get to know details of the student who benefitted?

Yes. The team at Rotary has committed to giving us updates on which students benefitted. 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 beneficiary.

What are the crowdfunding charges?

Fueladream charges 10% as crowdfunding charges. There is a payment gateway fee of 2% (for both the Indian and foreign gateway) plus a GST component of 2.16%. This adds up to 14.16%. There is also an initial fee of 3000 INR which is being waived for us.

When do I get the receipts?

It takes up to 2 weeks after the campaign is closed for the monies to be transferred to RBI The receipts will start getting processed about 2 to 3 weeks AFTER that 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 a 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. 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

Weekly Updates have been committed to after the campaign ends.
This is an open forum for all funders of this campaign.
Other registered users can send their comments/ queries directly to the campaign owner as a message.
