Miracle Foundation India
a non-profit organization based in New Delhi and in Austin, US
empowers children without parental care to reach their full potential. The NGO is supporting 194 children in higher education. Together with their donors, Miracle Foundation has successfully raised funds to send 194 students to college.

Miracle Foundation strongly believes that education is the single most important factor in breaking the cycle of poverty. By receiving a quality education, children are empowered to reach their full potential and become healthy, happy, thriving adults. Educating children without parental care benefits not only the kids themselves, but also the communities in which they live. Plus, children who receive a quality education are less likely to engage in crime or require social support from the government—minimizing societal costs.

Miracle Foundation brings life-changing care to orphans across India, one of whom is Kalpana. Kalpana grew up at Rourkela children’s home in Odisha and was recently accepted to college. Miracle Foundation set up a meeting for Kalpana and a career counselor, who helped Kalpana discover her passion for nursing. Miracle Foundation is now supporting Kalpana with a scholarship.

Twenty-four Miracle Foundation donors set up peer-to-peer online donation pages and helped raise some of the funds needed to send these 194 students to higher education. These donors brought in 13 lakhs in 30 days.

Speaking on this initiative, Caroline Boudreaux (Founder, Miracle Foundation) said, “Miracle Foundation is proud to support Kalpana and 193 other students with scholarships. I am so grateful to our donors for helping raise funds to send the kids to college. Together we are changing the lives of children by giving them a quality education and a bright future.”

Founded on Mother’s Day in 2000, Miracle Foundation’s philosophy is to find a loving family for every orphaned child. And while children are in transition to a family, they guarantee a quality education, a safe and loving environment, and personalized care so they are healthy and “known."
 
Miracle Foundation India is an NGO that brings life-changing care to children without parents. Our mission is simple. Miracle Foundation India stands for children without parental care and helps them thrive in real time. We have created a measurable, repeatable and systematic method to ensure that children are educated, fed, loved and safe. At the same time, we explore every avenue to reunite them with their parents or relatives, when possible.

Our method:

Guides leaders to resettle children with a caring, responsible relative or family—and help them stay together

Ensures organizations meet the 12 Rights of the Child and rise to international standards

Transitions orphanages into Centers for Excellence where children thrive instead of reside

Started in 2011, the organization is dedicated to empowering children without parents to reach their full potential. Today, we support thousands of children, from the hinterlands of Maharashtra, Tamil Nadu, Karnataka, Telangana, Kerala and Madhya Pradesh to the far-flung areas of Tripura.

Our goal is for every child to live in a loving family; to become a healthy, happy, income-producing person—and experience a true sense of belonging.
