"India is changing. Every year the country witnesses significant economic growth and increased participation in the global economy. More wealth. More jobs. Greater access to a better quality of life. But who is all of this progress really benefiting? While the IT boom, economic development, and globalization have created more opportunities, the bulk of these have been reserved for graduates of urban India’s elite private schools. Meanwhile, young students in rural areas are being left behind.

So we need your help. Since 2004, the Nanubhai Education Foundation has been helping vulnerable students of rural India attain skills so they too can experience the vast economic opportunities India offers. We hope you will join us in helping advance education in under-funded public schools in rural India through validated English language, IT, and Capacity Building Programs. With your support, India’s changes won’t just take place at a national level; they will start in each classroom, spreading from motivated individuals, to families, to entire communities."

      L@@K it up using Google see how much these people enjoy a nice big glass of urine with a meal or anytime a quick refreshing drink might taste good. Now lets get more of them over here so we can learn their culture too?
      Search the words " unine therapy " and enjoy your trip into the thinking of these fine people?

      Plenty of children have been left behind- only a select few will ever make it to Silicon Valley. The charity is doing remarkable work- even Kal Penn thinks so! That's why he will be one of our guests of honor at our fundraiser on March 6 in NYC!!!!

      NANUBHAI LOVES PEREZ!!!!!

      No one in India drinks urine! You are so ignorant. It is a beautiful country with a rich history and culture. This org is clearly doing great work!
