Singh Foundation is a national level development
organisation directly benefitting over 300,0 children
and their families every year, through 10
projects on education, healthcare, livelihood and
women empowerment, in more than 700 remote
villages and slums across 2 states of India.
Education is both the means as well as the end to a
better life: the means because it empowers an
individual to earn his/her livelihood and the end
because it increases one's awareness on a range of
issues – from healthcare to appropriate social
behaviour to understanding one's rights – and in the
process help him/her evolve as a better citizen.
Doubtless, education is the most powerful catalyst for
social transformation. But child education cannot be
done in isolation. A child will go to school only if the
family, particularly the mother, is assured of
healthcare and empowered. Moreover, when an elder
sibling is relevantly skilled to be employable and
begins earning, the journey of empowerment
continues beyond the present generation.
Realizing this, Singh Foundation, beginning in the
corridors of education, adopted a lifecycle approach
of development, focusing its interventions on children,
their families and the larger community.
Singh Foundation believes that unless members of the
civil society are involved proactively in the process of
development, sustainable change will not happen.
Following this model of Civic Driven Change, Smile
Foundation sensitizes and engages the civil society,
making it an active partner in all its welfare
initiatives.
Today, 8 million children in India are out of school –
surrounded by poverty, illness and despair; they are
fighting a daily battle for their survival. Together, we
can bring hope in their lives. Together, we can bring
change and make it last.
