Scholarships
Three merit scholarships reward students for the rank they achieve in their school, their district and their city, so that strong results lead on to the next stage of their education.
The Archana Foundation is our family's non-profit, created in memory of our mother. It helps children from underprivileged backgrounds get access to good-quality education.
The Archana Foundation is named after our mother and is built on a conviction she held throughout her life: that education is the surest path to opportunity.
Our family's own story bears this out. Education gave our parents the footing to build a career, a family and, in time, an enterprise, and it has remained the first priority for each generation since.
Established in 2021, the foundation extends that opportunity to children from underprivileged backgrounds who would otherwise go without, through merit scholarships, donations to institutions working in education, and direct infrastructure support.

We donate to welfare societies and institutions working in education: programmes that move the children of beggars from the street into the classroom, youth education initiatives, and government-aided schools serving children from poor families.
The practical support a family needs before a child can focus on learning: flats given to parents so their children grow up with a secure roof over their heads, mobile vans for food collection and for getting children where they need to be, and supplies for school and daily life.
Schools, NGOs and institutions working in education: we would like to hear from you.
