For many Americans, donating money to a foreign
project is intimidating: transparency and accountability are limited, and the donor receives no formal recognition of his
or her contribution. At Omprakash, we hope to offer an alternative: by acting as a bridge between communities in America
and abroad, we give our donors a chance to support foreign projects without sacrificing the security of donating to a registered
501(c)3 American charity.
Please explore our Fundraising Opportunities and learn about the needs of Our Partners if you would like to support a specific project. Or, if you prefer,
you can make an open-ended donation, and the Omprakash directors will determine how to use it.
