Aarav’s First School Bag – Educational Support

Aarav, a 9-year-old boy from the slums of Kotdwar, had never seen the inside of a classroom. His father, a daily wage laborer, couldn’t afford books, let alone fees. Utthaan Global Foundation enrolled him in school, provided uniforms, stationery, and even mentoring support. Today, Aarav reads fluently in both Hindi and English — and dreams of becoming a teacher to uplift kids like himself.

“Education opened my son’s world. Thank you for believing in him.” – Aarav’s Mother
