ABOUT ME

"Seva DC" is an SVC group comprised of three friends, Maia Daniels, Heidi K. Hansen and Gurinder S. Shinmar, from the Washington DC area, who mobilized after being inspired by the efforts of 1Well. Gurinder, who is in the specialty pharmaceutical distribution business by day, prides himself on being an avid footballer by night. Heidi, a government attorney, loves to travel in her free time, and has visited both the north and south of India. Maia, who is in business development at Marriott, can't wait to work on some hotel deals in Gujarat India!

We collectively decided to raise funds to assist a childcare center in Vera village as we realize that children are the future and that helping them to thrive and providing them with education would be the best way to create lasting change. Moreover, we like the idea that education feeds off itself and that countries with an educated population develop the capacity to help themselves. By raising funds for the childcare center in Vera village we hope to give the children a good start in life in addition to allowing mothers a chance to work and gain a better income for their families' futures.
