Join us for the Curry for a child Challenge
Kickoff Sept 30th - Oct 2nd 2022
The Curry for a Child Challenge is bringing people together to feed 30 vulnerable children living in Kolkata, India for an entire year. Each team is tasked with raising $360, which provides nutritious foods for one child for one year through our wonderful partners at the Indian Society for the Rehabilitation of Children (ISRC) in Kolkata.
ALL THE DETAILS
Gather a team of family members, friends, co-workers, or anyone you’d like!
Set a goal - raise $360 (feel free to set it lower or higher) to provide one year of nutritious meals for a child in West Bengal, India!
Start your team’s fundraiser on Facebook. Go HERE or click the orange button below. Share it as early as possible, share it far and wide with everyone you know! If you had 10 people donate just $36, you’ll meet your goal!
Pick a date anytime in October to gather with your team and eat curry.
Post about the Curry for a Child Challenge on social media frequently so others will be inspired to join the Curry for a Child Challenge, and so we can feed more children!
