Our Founders
Circle of Hope Trust was founded by four individuals who believed cricket, education, food security and inclusion could change a community's future together.

Vinay Singh
Founder & Managing TrusteeStarted Circle of Hope on a single dusty ground with a handful of bats..

Siddharth Das
Vice President, Cricket ProgramsA former state-level cricketer who designed our grassroots-to-district coaching pathway and continues to mentor coaches across every center.

Alok Gahalaud
Secretary, Education & HealthBuilt our tuition-support, scholarship and health-camp programs from the ground up, ensuring every child we coach also stays in school and healthy.

Vikas Sonkar
Cabinet Secretary, Operations & OutreachRuns day-to-day operations, community outreach and our hunger-relief and disability-support drives across all 18 centers.
We started Circle of Hope believing that a bat and ball, a textbook and a meal shouldn't depend on where a child is born. Every center we open is a promise kept to that idea.
