Village2Village is a fundraising campaign that allows you to bring your “village” together to help another village break free from slavery and finally realize their human right to sustainable freedom.
You’ll fundraise, either as a team or individually, toward a goal of $38,885 (or less than $13,000 over three years) — exactly what’s needed to build a School4Freedom in one village in Northern India. We know that education is the catalyst for freedom. Your team will set an entire village of 100-200 people on freedom's path by educating the children and empowering the adults to finally stand up to their landowner and break free from the shackles of slavery. Finally. Forever.
Each school costs $38,885 or less than $13,000 per year over 3 years.

who are culturally aware of the local challenges faced by their students
to facilitate and foster the best learning experience for each student

local community workers to advocate for villagers with the government
for adults to learn their rights and become empowered to take back their freedom
With the help of your 'village'—your friends, family, and colleagues—you can help an entire village to freedom. Now is your time to make a meaningful difference that changes everything.
Watching the adult villagers and their children morph from downtrodden faces and attitudes, to smiles and self-assurance, is one of the most amazing things to see in the world. I highly recommend this program to anyone interested in helping the world be a better place while helping themselves become a better person.
Seeing the difference from a village unknowing that freedom exists to one that is self- sufficient, is absolutely mind blowing. Children dancing and singing with pure joy and freedom to live brings me great joy. I don’t feel I have truly helped make these changes. The people of the villages helped themselves and each other. We support the work. Beautiful work!
To witness first hand, the profound and sustainable affect my contribution to V4F has made possible for an entire village of people is beyond anything I could have imagined. To say that it moves me to tears, that I am inspired and filled with gratitude, barely scrapes the surface. This Matters.
Often times, philanthropy can be a disconnected experience. You give. You feel good. The org feels good. Yet, you often never get to see the impact of you're giving. Not so, with V4F! The reports we received allowed us to experience the lives we were changing, almost first hand! We were so inspired by the success of this program that we funded another school! Warning...FREEDOM is contagious!
When you look into the eyes of someone who is enslaved–they are dark, blank, hopeless. But when that woman, man, or child finally understands they can be free, in fact have a right to be free, a light goes on, hope is born, and the arc of the moral universe truly bends towards justice.
Seeing the impact that we have made firsthand and how far the dollar goes, inspires me to want to come back again and again.
We are so excited to connect with you! Join our email list for more insight on how we can WIN the fight against modern day slavery together!
