Our Goals
Our goals and objectives are simple but heartfelt. To start with, we want to promote and run educational institutions for differently abled students. We want to escalate learning with scholarships, stipends, and prizes to encourage personal development. We consider education as the means to enable empowerment - we want our children to be gainfully self-employed.
