Growing up in rural settings of Haryana, studying in some of the best universities in our country, and later working as young CSR professionals — these are some of the commonalities both of us share.
We are also passionate believers in the power of quality education to transform lives and families — our own included. We felt a huge gap in how our children and youth access these opportunities across urban and rural India.
Due to lack of proper education, lakhs of rural children and youth — especially women — are denied higher education and employment, leaving them vulnerable to social and financial setbacks.
With a purpose to change this, and to follow our stubborn passion for working with the under-privileged at the very grassroots — we quit our jobs, moved to Haryana, and established Varitra Foundation in January 2018.
We consider ourselves lucky that at every step, we were joined by an amazing bunch of people — especially our youth — who have today become a big family.
We continue to move towards equality, peace, and justice in our society.
One child at a time.
