VISION
To see a society of socially & ecologically responsible children growing up to be economically independent human beings, across the country.
MISSION
To promote meaningful education for economically underprivileged children.
- We keep reading news items how children are scared of teachers, or school.
- Is it possible for us to change this? That students’ look forward to school and the closing bell is the not the most attractive part of the day?
- There are numerous instances of parents being neglected by their children. There are instances of insensitivity towards the miseries of fellow human beings.
- In India nearly 80% wealth is in the hands of 10% people. Hence, there is greater responsibility and moral obligations on the shoulders of privileged to alleviate the indignities of the teeming million.
- Is our education system building social accountability among our children?
- Consumerism and narrow focus on economic development with consequent degradation of natural resource and environmental pollution have resulted in increased frequency and intensity of natural calamities, climate change, loss of biodiversity and extinction of species.
- Do our schools teach our students to practice life with dignity in their endeavors?
- Does our education system help in adopting ecologically sustainable practices?

Klorofeel Foundation is incorporated as a Not-for-Profit Company, Under Section 8 of the Companies Act 2013. It is also registered under Sections 12AA and 80G of the Income Tax Act. Its mission is to improve the quality of school education of under-privileged children.
Since its inception in August 2016, it has pursued two objectives: realising ‘Grade-specific Competencies’ and making children ‘Self-directed Learners’ by the completion of Grade 5. Its strategy has been ‘Outside-School’ intervention in ‘Gram-Panchayat Saturation Approach’, through village level community based physical ‘Learning Centres’, managed by ‘Mothers’ Group’ and ‘Local Facilitators’, for ‘supplementing and complementing the efforts of Government Schools’.
Field Notes
Our approach of intervention due to the diversity of the region, local belief and lifestyle, existing educational practices, availability of resources has always exposed us to different sets of observations, which are crux to our reflection, learning and strategy for improvement. We present here such notes by our team members from the field.
Success Stories
In our journey, inspiring stories of change has become a great source of motivation to drive further. It not only brings us occasions to celebrate but also reminds to ask us, “so, what’s next? Here’s an achieve of such success stories.
Saathis Shining
When it comes to our efforts to create an impact, our SAATHIs are the sheet anchor. Their involvement with students, engagement with parents, and commitment for self-development make their role multidimensional. Here, we present stories of our SAATHIs, who are our key change agents.
