Drive 4 Change,

About the event

Join us as we journey across the US spreading the word about our charitable work in India and Nepal. This isn't just any event - it's a coast to coast tour crafted to inspire hope, action and change. We'll be making more than 50 event stops and covering an 11,000 mile route in less than 4 months. Our main focus for this tour is to raise awareness and create impact for the communities we support and empower across South Asia. The fun begins August 2017!

Why should you sponsor?

We have several sponsorship opportunities available to fit your budget. We'll be holding over 50 events in 50 cities across the US and will be driving over 11,000 miles. Our team has extensive marketing and event experience, and we're good at it - but don’t take our word for it, visit our site https://khusihona.org/stamp-of-approval/ for testimonials from those we've worked with in the past.

Our events benefit Khusi Hona, a 501C3 tax deductible charitable organization serving in women empowerment, rural health and innovative poverty eradication programs in South Asia. Most of our events will be held at yoga studios while others will take place in community centers, or businesses. Our audience is young, mostly female, health conscious and has expendable income. Khusi Hona has a large presence on social media with over 10k Twitter followers, 4.7k Facebook followers, and 3k followers on Instagram and we'll frequently use each of these platforms to promote the tour. We are currently seeking like-minded brands that would like to be exposed to a diverse and inclusive audience living all over the continental United States.

While it is suggested by this service to nominate a dollar figure (or range), all of our sponsorship packages can be customised to meet specific sponsor needs and will be priced to suit.
