Corporate Funding

We are always looking for more partners in the corporate world. We would welcome introductions to companies who may be interested in assisting our work. If you have contacts that you would like to share with us, please let us know. We’re happy to show you how KOTHIYA’s works, or we can come to your office and talk with your staff.

Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) & Matching Programs

CSR is an increasingly important aspect of companies today. KOTHIYA’s values our connections with CSR groups and the benefits they bring to us via volunteers and funding. We are eager to expand these partnerships to include more companies, so please contact us if your company has a CSR group that may be interested.

Many companies have corporate matching programs that allow employees to choose organizations to donate money to, the amount of which is then matched by the company itself. If your company has a matching program, please contact us for information on how to help SRKRSS become a choice for employees of your company. Please contact us at info.kothiya@gmail.com

Drives

Fundraising drives are a great way to get your school or office involved in helping the community. If you are interested in holding a drive for books, school supplies, office supplies, etc., please contact us at info.kothiya@gmail.com. We will provide you with the necessary promotional material about the organization and will arrange for pickup of the items.

Sponsorships

It costs approximately Rs 10,000 a year to educate a child — approximately $150 USD or €105. Choosing to sponsor a child, class, or project allows you to clearly see the direct effects of your donation. If you sponsor a child or class you will be sent regular updates regarding their progress. If you sponsor a project you will also be kept updated and even be able to visit and see the fruits of your donation first hand.
