About - Ishva Foundation

Reach the highest potential

Every child has exceptional potential

We are inspiring lesser-privileged children to reach their highest potential

“We are in for a marathon, not a sprint! We are so glad to have you as our partner in realizing that vision – slowly but steadily.”
– Arijit Sarker, Co-Founder of Ishva Foundation

Our Story

We set up Ishva to be not just another NGO. We had a dream to shape many young souls as capable, competent, true citizens of this country.

Every day we are running 16 unique classrooms at 16 Ishva learning centers with a strict ‘no stick’ policy. Close to 1600+ children are touched by the passion of mentors every day. At Ishva we believe we need to provide the ecosystem for enabling true and holistic education.

Developing life skills is not possible without human touch. Over time, this ecosystem needs to be made sustainable when the communities own such a program, and Ishva becomes a movement rather than just an NGO.

This ecosystem would not be possible without your unstinting support. We, and the children whose lives we touch every day, will remain indebted to 125+ mentors and the donors. Let’s shape a better society for the future.
