_ 2017 Vibha Dream Mile - Marathon, Half Marathon, 10K & 5K:
The Dream Mile is the flagship event in Vibha's continued efforts to increase awareness about the plight of underprivileged children. It has come a long way since its inception in 1998. It has grown from being a small event attended primarily by volunteers and friends to a permanent fixture on the calendars of runners in the various cities in America. The increasing participation and enthusiasm for this event just goes to show how strongly people feel about the cause of underprivileged children.

Vibha is a US based non- profit, non-religious, non-political volunteer organisation that seeks to restore the promise of a future to underprivileged children.
Vibha’s philosophy is that of a social venture catalyst. We seed, grow and scale grassroots ideas that can solve systemic problems related to the underprivileged child through a cure that involves minimal external intervention with large scale societal impact. Such solutions are typically hard to find and involve closely working with all players related to the ecosystem of the problem – the beneficiaries, beneficiary families, village, town and city councils, governmental agencies and above all society at large.
