About the Organization

As its name suggests, Anubhuti is an organization that cares deeply about the underprivileged, particularly children who face multiple constraints that prevent them from accessing education. These constraints can cause them to drop out of school, leaving them with no support to continue their studies

Anubhuti is a non-profit organization founded in 2016 by Ms. Sakshi Srivastava with a focus on supporting underprivileged children who face numerous constraints that lead to them dropping out of formal schooling. This can be due to various reasons such as extreme poverty, unemployment, child labor, migration, or gender-based issues like marriage and responsibilities. Anubhuti is dedicated to addressing the issue of educational dearth caused by these factors and aims to create opportunities for individuals to sustain their lives in India's rural corners, urban slums, and educationally backward regions by mobilizing communities and empowering stakeholders. The organization's goal is to mitigate economic and social marginalization in education, particularly among underprivileged children who have dropped out or are out of school at an early age.
