Our centers are located in the soft underbelly of Delhi where thousands have settled, migrating from their home states chasing their dreams of a better tomorrow for their children. And we help in our small way to convert their dreams into reality.
At our centers we aspire to
Provide free study material and uniforms to children in order to encourage them to attend centre.
Organize free periodical health check-ups.
Introduce them to the treasure of our culture by celebrating all important national and religious festivals.
Provide lockers for safekeep of their books and keep the centres open round the year to discourage the tendency of drop outs during vacations.
Impart vocational Training (Gandhiji’s ‘Nai Talim’) to youth in partnership with like-minded organizations wherever possible.
Above all inculcate values which should help nurture tomorrow’s good human beings & responsible citizens.
