About Us
Our Story
Miracle Makers was founded in November 2014, by Maya Tharoo with the express purpose of aiding children born prematurely. This, however, is not simply another issue for Maya; reason being that Maya Tharoo was born on July 17th, 2004 over 2 months before her expected due date. Maya herself was the same as all those children she seeks to help. Helping not simply with words, but also actions; Maya Tharoor has been volunteering at Winnie Palmer Intensive Care Unit since the age of 5. At 9 she was the youngest recipient of the Orlando Community Builder Rising Star Award in 2014. In addition, her ‘Team Maya’ raised the second highest funds for the Winnie Miracle Mile. Maya has shown time and again, how dedicated she is to this issue and how she will stop at nothing to see children receive not the care that they need; but the care that they deserve.
