Bhaktishala

Foundation

Bhakti means devotion and Shala means education.

A movement dedicated to educating and empowering the lives of impoverished girls and boys in Vaso, India. Education empowers these children to reach their full potential and become self-sufficient. We believe education bolsters the family, enhances the living condition, and sustains the community. Join the Bhaktishala Foundation as we support these children with greater opportunities.

"Tell us, if there were one thing we could do for your village, what would it be?"

"With all respect, Sahib, you have little to teach us in strength and toughness. And we don't envy you your restless spirits. Perhaps we are happier than you? But we would like our children to go to school. Of all the things you have, learning is the one we most desire for our children."
