OUR MISSION STATEMENT
Vishwaas Incorporated aims to serve the cause of furthering
education in rural India.
Our purpose is to raise awareness and
provide customised, self-sustainable community
solutions to problems at the grass roots level.
We believe that every child deserves an education, and intend
to work alongside other non-government organisations and
charities in India to make this vision a reality.

WHERE WE COME FROM
In 2005, a group of students from the University of New South Wales
(UNSW) came together to form Vishwaas,
a student body focused on promoting Indian Culture
and Hindu values, beliefs and customs, and their
implementation in daily living.
Vishwaas first began to establish itself after memorable performances at the annual inter universitycharity event called Cultural Night in 2007 and 2008. Ensuing these accomplishments, on 10 th October 2010, the first of many meetings was held for Vishwaas, supporting its transition froma university society to a productions company. Driving this transition was the motivation to setup a charity-Vishwaas Foundation-which would contribute the money raised through VishwaasProductions to the improvement of rural healthcare in India.
The first theatrical play for this new direction was Gandhi-The Power of One, which was brought
to the stage on 1st August 2009.
A huge success, this production won multiple community awards,and raised $8500
for the Medical Students Aid Project (MSAP), a UNSW based society that provides much
needed medical equipment to rural hospitals in the developing world.
Gandhi -the power of one
On 31st July 2010, Vishwaas Productions once again took to the stage and brought to life The Legend of Asoka to a sold out audience of 900.
The Legend Of Asoka
Inspired by the goal to bring about positive change, on 13th December 2010,
18 members of Vishwaas traveled to India to see the impact that the money they raised
was having on rural schools and hospitals first hand.
Dubbed Vision on a Mission, it was during this 15-day journey that the Vishwaas team became aware of the plight of the children studying in India's rural schools and instigated a change
in direction for Vishwaas.
VISIONON A MISSION
// make a difference
As a result, on 7th May 2011, Vishwaas Incorporated, encompassing both Vishwaas Productions & Vishwaas Foundation, was formed. Vishwaas
aims to make changes at the
grass roots level.
Dedicated to initiating and maintaining change within therural education system of India, and developing self-sustainable community solutions,

OUR NEXT BIG EVENT:
NEVER Die
sCHARITYAll participants will be captivated as the evening unfolds with
all the intrigue, mystery and deception associated with a Bond story. Although it will be a team-based event, participants will not be
limited to working together. Instead, they must summon all their creativity and suave to win the challenge....
if that means misleading their own team or playing an insider then so be it.
Ultimately they will need to realise that charity never dies!
Charity Never Dies is a themed Interactive Games Evening to be held on 18th November at the Castle Grand. The event will once more spark the timeless
classic, James Bond – 007 to life.
GET INVOLVED :All proceeds for the event will be used for projects which are selected by the Vishwaas Research Team. There are numerous avenues through which all businesses and individuals can get involvedwith supporting the event.
Having won numerous awards from its previous productions, Vishwaas has developed a strong reputation amongst younger generations for delivering high quality events.
Charity Never Dies will once more provide for an evening of premium entertainment and will attract 200 young individuals either currently studying at University or recent graduates.
We believe that offering generic sponsorship packages do not allow
for your business to gain thenecessary exposure it can from a
high quality event such as Charity Never Dies.
Instead, one of our Sponsorship Reps can liaise with your team and draft a package
catered specifically for yourbusiness.
... but provide a deeper personal satisfaction to all
our supporters that their generosity is truly
being appreciated.
Our vision is to tackle grass roots educationproblems in rural India. However we do not believe in simply handing over a cheque to an organisation working on the ground in this area. Our research team has the responsibility of finding potential partner organisations work-ing in rural India and the projects they are involved with which need assistance from bodies such as Vishwaas.
Once the team has made a selection on the projects that Vishwaas will be funding, they will continue to followthe project until the deliverables are met. We feel this approach will allow us to not only havecomplete transparency with movement of funds, ...
