Asha for Education

Description

Asha for Education is an organization dedicated to socio-economic change in India. In pursuit of this goal, Asha focuses on basic education in the belief that education is a critical requisite for socio-economic change. In keeping with this focus, our volunteers get involved with and support projects that have an education-related component to them. The objectives of this group are:1.To provide education to underprivileged children in India. 2.To encourage the formation of various local groups, both in India and U.S., to reach out to larger sections of the population. 3.To support and cooperate with persons and groups already engaged in similar activities. 4.To raise the required human and other resources to achieve the group objectives.5.To provide opportunity to individuals based in the U.S. who wish to participate in Asha activities in India. 6.To address, whenever possible, other issues affecting human life such as health care, environment, socio-economic aspects and women's issues.
