About AASRA Foundation in 6c/30 1st floor vrindavan colony,Raibareily road ,lucknow, Lucknow

AASRA is non governmental organization working to provide quality education to the underprivileged children of India. AASRA was established in 2010 to provide quality school education to the children in Uttar Pradesh. Since then, organization has grown both in scope and geographical coverage.

Today, we reach out sizeable number of children living in both rural and urban areas through a range of interventions. We wish to make an effort and contribution towards improving the level and spread of education and information in Indian society.

We believe that lack of education is at the root of several problems afflicting Indian society. It is a serious impediment to development and improvement in quality of life. AASRA aims to make a positive difference in this area.

AASRA firmly believes in working with the government to bring about large scale change and therefore our programs are aimed at supplementing rather than replacing governmental efforts.

We also work with the school systems and communities to plan and implement our programs. Thousands of volunteers, from all walks of life, belonging to the same communities as the children work with us to implement the interventions at the grassroots. These volunteers are mobilized, trained and monitored by the AASRA team. This not only ensures more effective implementation of our programs, but also helps build capacities at the grassroots for providing quality education to the children. Empowerment of women, especially from economically weaker sections of society and from minority religious groups is often cited as one of AASRA’s most significant contributions to the communities in which it intervenes. These people benefit not only in terms of capacity building with regard to additional employable skills like teacher training, managing the local program/ enterprise, communication etc. but most importantly, confidence building and increased respect and acceptance in the local community.

All our programs are designed to ensure that:

Enrollment in schools increases.
Learning in schools and communities increases.
The education net reaches children who are unable to attend school.
Models are replicated and scaled up to serve large numbers of children to achieve a large scale impact.http://aasrafoundationindia.org/?page_id=33
