Education and Development
We Provide Care
- Outreach has grown from 30 children in 2001 to over 35000 underprivileged children and over 180 senior citizens at present.
- We have sponsored more than 1500 children and provided them with books and uniforms as well as school fees for special cases.
- Our development centres in Mumbai and Pune aimed at ensuring low drop-outs and success in examinations so the children could move onto the next grade, have been very successful.
- We encouraged public speaking, holistic development by having competitions and debates in English; thus removing the fear of speaking in English and promoting better language comprehension among these children.
Future Plans
From the time we began 10 years ago, up until now, our programs have undergone tremendous metamorphoses in content as well as in involvement. But the aim has always been the same “Empowering the underprivileged”.
