About NAMASTE - WINGS TO FLY AMERICA

Namaste - Wings To Fly America is a U.S.-based support and fundraising affiliate that works on behalf of Namaste Wings to Fly (India), a long-established NGO operating from Vellanad, Kerala. The U.S. affiliate’s stated role is to attract sponsors, volunteers and donations to fund family houses, schooling, health services and women’s livelihood programs in the Kani tribal and other disadvantaged communities in southern India.

Program activity in recent years has been concentrated in India: the India-based Namaste organization reports ongoing family houses, tuition centers, a tribal hostel and community health/elder care initiatives with public-facing project updates in 2022–2024. The U.S. affiliate’s public record shows volunteer and fundraising activity (past U.S. events and partners) while its website states it is incorporated in Colorado as a 501(c)(3).

I could not locate an independently verified IRS public listing for EIN 27-3207197 in widely used public databases during this search; the organization’s website asserts Colorado incorporation and 501(c)(3) status. If you need tax-deduction verification, request the organization’s IRS determination letter or check the IRS Tax Exempt Organization Search.

Notable achievements

Established family houses

The Namaste network (India) operates multiple family-style homes that have enabled hundreds of tribal children to leave extremely remote, subsistence living and access school and health services.

Large sponsorship program

The partner NGO publicly states it sponsors on the order of many hundreds of children (site material cites nearly 850 beneficiaries across projects), supported in part by U.S. sponsorship and fundraising.

Government collaboration (2024)

Recent program-level activity (India partner) includes administration/implementation of state-supported SOS Model Home and Entry Home placements for children under government protection schemes (reported in 2024).
