WeReachOut (http://www.wereachout.org) is a volunteer-operated non-profit organization without any religious or political affiliation, focused on reaching out to well deserving students in India through educational sponsorship programs.

Founded in late 2004 in CA, USA with a passion to serve from what we believe and how we can be helpful to others from what we have learned and experienced over the years.

After engaging in different types of projects for more than a year, ranging from helping inmates of orphanages to victims of 2004 Tsunami in India, WeReachOut has decided to focus on education from January 2006 to break all the barriers in someone’s life with a permanent solution.
