About Aasraa Trust Aasraa Trust is a recognized non-profit organization working at the intersection of education, skills development, and empowerment for underserved children and youth in the state of Uttarakhand, India. In the last 16 years of its operation since 2009, Aasraa has impacted the lives of over 25,000 children, their families and communities. Starting with grassroots, street, and slum-level mobilization, Aasraa prepares children for mainstream education and transitions them to higher studies and skills training. Aasraa's philosophy is rooted in the belief that a child can't learn on an empty stomach, without access to healthcare, a safe home, or emotional support. Education cannot exist in isolation. That's why we adopt a holistic, multi-pronged approach - addressing nutrition, health, shelter, care, and protection - ensuring that every child not only stays in school but also has the opportunity to thrive and reach their full potential. All of Aasraa's interventions are designed with this philosophy in mind, creating an ecosystem where no child is left behind. Aasraa’s educational and life skill support programs also extend to Udham Singh Nagar and Pauri Garhwal (Thangar). In 2023, we launched the SkillAbility Centre in Dehradun to bridge the gap between education and employment through vocational training and soft skills development. With over 25,000 children impacted since inception, Aasraa is driven by a single belief: no child is unreachable or unteachable.
