The basic principle of Akanksha is providing underprivileged children with opportunities for learning. Akanksha wants the classroom to be just a safe place for the children where they can forget, at least for some time, their roubles at home and study and also enjoy. Akanksha came into existence in 1991. It started with 15 children. Now it has 3500 children, with 58 center and 6 schools. The children are taught, apart from English and Maths, values, self-esteem and confidence.
