What are the fundraising avenues for an NPO through VDHM 2026?

Privilege Level Grants: In order to incentivize the efforts of participating NPOs in leveraging the platform provided by the VDHM, a list of indicators have been identified, which translates into points for the NGO. Further, these accumulated points are converted into privileges for the NPOs which include a capacity-building grant.

Charity Bibs: NPOs registering for the VDHM 2025 would be allocated a certain number of running slots (in form of bibs) to help them raise funds through interested individual runners who are willing to avail the same against a donation in support of the NGO.

Corporate Team Participation: Corporate Team is a category especially designed for companies who wish to field employee teams to participate in the Vedanta Delhi Half Marathon, and raise funds for NGO(s) of their choice. This is a great opportunity for corporates to engage with their employees, and give them a differentiated race day experience.

Individual Fundraising: Individual supporters who may or may not be running at the VDHM choose to support causes that are close to their hearts by creating a fundraising page, and reaching out to their friends, family, and peers seeking support for their chosen NGO. The event supports these individuals in this endeavour by providing an efficient, empowering, and effective platform to raise funds for a cause.

Special Number Bibs: All registered runners at the VDHM 2025 get an opportunity to upgrade their bib number to a special number of their choice against a fixed donation to any NGO of their choice on Lakshyaa website. Runners interested in availing this Special Number Bib can fill the relevant form found.

Direct Donation on NGO Page: Upon registering for the VDHM 2025, each NGO is represented on the Lakshyaa website through a unique personalized page. Besides all relevant information about the NGO, including the number of bibs available, the page provides a donate button for the NGO to receive a direct donation.
