Ways To Get Involved
The Miracle Foundation has created several programs that enable interested and committed people to support their mission, as well as receive the benefits inherent in making a difference in others’ lives. These programs include:
Sponsorship Program: The Miracle Foundation provides a monthly giving program that connects Sponsors directly with an individual child. Sponsors can become a global parent by providing financial support, as well as emotional support through the exchange of letters and pictures, and, if they desire, by visiting their child in India. In return, Sponsors receive letters, pictures, drawings, report cards, and video e-mails periodically throughout the year.
Voluntourism Program: The Miracle Foundation organizes approximately three trips per year to India, providing Voluntourists with the life-changing opportunity to visit The Miracle Foundation’s homes and spend significant time with the children. In addition to serving the children in need, travelers in the Voluntourism program also have the opportunity to experience the unique culture of India and to visit some its most famous sites.
Ambassador Program: The Miracle Foundation Ambassadors are volunteers who have traveled to India to visit the orphanages. Upon their return, they are moved to continue to serve the children by sharing their experiences with others, encouraging them to get involved and also support The Miracle Foundation’s mission.

Famous quotes containing the words ways and/or involved:
“When I develop my recipes I always look for ways to create what I call the Big Taste. While I enjoy eating simple grilled foods, what interests me when I cook are dishes with a taste that is fully dimensional.”
—Paula Wolfert, U.S. cookbook writer. Paula Wolfert’s World of Food, Introduction, Harper and Row (1988)
“In the United States, it is now possible for a person eighteen years of age, female as well as male, to graduate from high school, college, or university without ever having cared for, or even held, a baby; without ever having comforted or assisted another human being who really needed help. . . . No society can long sustain itself unless its members have learned the sensitivities, motivations, and skills involved in assisting and caring for other human beings.”
—Urie Bronfenbrenner (b. 1917)
