Outreach (INDIA)NGO Working in Goa, INDIA
The Indian registered trust has been set up to include students as trustees to continue empowering them in life and showing the younger students the benefits of working and studying hard. All of our trustees have passed through and excelled with the help of the original UK founding charity.
At its inception all three trustees have completed or are currently completing their Masters level education, two taking commerce streams and one taking science. These are the first students to attempt their masters so it is fitting to found the Indian trust on their success in their education and get ready for the next step in their adult life.
The hope is that more students will join us in the future to make the trust an continually growing and self sustaining entity devoted to helping students from disadvantaged backgrounds reach their full potential and pass on their knowledge to younger students.
