Asha is a non-profit organization that is dedicated to bringing about socio-economic change in India primarily through education. We pride ourselves on being an action group that disburses 100% of donations to our partner groups in India.
The Seattle chapter of Asha, formed in December 1994, actively supports development initiatives in health care and livelihood, care for people with special needs, and gender issues in addition to education related projects. What sets Asha apart from other NGOs is that our volunteers maintain an active, ongoing connection with the projects we support by staying in touch with the partners, visiting them during their trips to India, and managing the website & fund disbursement.
