Shanti Bhavan Children’s Project, located in the rural South Indian village of Baliganapalli, is a residential school that serves children from India’s lowest socioeconomic communities and castes. The school provides children with a world-class education, completely free of cost, from pre-k through 12 th grade and continues to support students as they pursue their college education. The high academic rigor of the school paired with an equal emphasis on personal development has resulted in a holistic model that raises students to be well-rounded and confident young women and men, equipped with the necessary skills to make positive societal contributions once they are ready to enter the workforce.
Shanti Bhavan is working on a large expansion of their facilities and capacity for students. Shanti Bhavan accepts children from the lowest caste in Bangalore and the surrounding area into a program lasting from primary school until college. This program has been internationally recognized and was the recent focus of a Netflix Documentary, Daughters Of Destiny.
Starting in 2017, Asha Stanford will be supporting this expansion. We will do so by financially supporting 10 students with all education-related costs. Please contact Tim Lann ([email protected]) for information regarding this, if necessary.
Once the facility expansion for Shanti Bhavan is complete, Shanti will be able to double the amount of students they are able to support.
