At Shikshanganga, we aim to address the pressing challenge of ensuring access to quality education for all, particularly in underserved schools and communities. We believe that educational inequality not only hampers individual growth but also stifles the economic productivity of youth in India. This issue is close to our hearts, and we are committed to bridging this gap with the power of youth and strategic capacity building.

We were founded in August 2020 as a project under Teach For India and officially established as a non-profit organization in 2021. Shikshanganga operates with a clear vision: to develop each student in India into an empathetic, professional leader. Under the visionary leadership of Samrat Pawar, we aim to rebuild India's future by fostering a global citizenship mindset, honing skills, and instilling values that prepare students for higher education, entrepreneurship, and employment readiness.

Our journey began with a deep focus on grassroots interventions, leveraging the significant strength of youth power to drive change. Since our inception, hundreds of passionate young leaders have tirelessly led the movement to build future leaders from the ground up. We work to channel their energy into impactful actions and capacity-building efforts, striving to create a ripple effect that transforms educational landscapes across India.

Shikshanganga is driven by three broad and deep-impact goals:

1. Higher Education: Supporting students to access top-tier colleges and universities.

2. Entrepreneurship: Empowering students to become innovative entrepreneurs and problem-solvers.

3. Employment Readiness: Equipping students with the skills and competencies needed for meaningful employment.

Our work is more than just a mission; it is a movement towards educational equity and economic productivity. With a commitment to creating a lasting impact, Shikshanganga continues to inspire and lead the way in shaping a brighter future for all students.
