Dr. Raj Vir Singh Foundation runs a school for unprivileged Children.


The Foundation established a school on 1 July 2009, in one of the interior districts of the State of Uttar Pradesh. The underlying commitment for this initiative is sourced from a lack of quality schools and educational institutions for children in the area at subsidized and affordable tuition fee.

The School is the first of its kind to be set up by a non government organisation in the area.

Mission and Objectives

The School aims to make a modest contribution towards empowering rural socio economically challenged families by way of providing their children access to quality education in order for these young minds of tomorrow to be able to receive dignified and sustainable academic and all round support to assist them to aim higher in terms of career pursuits than what could otherwise constitute their capped potential in today’s evolving and increasingly competitive world.
Some of the School’s specific objectives are:
* Provide quality education at an affordable fee.
* Provide a holistic environment and exposure for children to engage in all round development.
* Accord multifaceted training across contemporary disciplines.
* Cultivate confidence, instill respect and commitment for others and an inner sense of discipline within children.

Current Update
The School, in its first quarter itself, enrolled approximately one hundred children. Extensive pre-launch awareness was undertaken to interact with and inform the local population about the mission and objectives of the Foundation and its commitment to provide quality education at an affordable fee for children of that area through the School.
During the course of its last three academic years, the School has witnessed a significant level of growth in terms of the number of students enrolled. At present there are more than 200 children enrolled in the School. The Foundation aims to enroll up to 300 children prior to the end of the academic year 2012-13. Ongoing infrastructure expansion is underway in order to achieve this objective.

The School presently administers classes up to the middle scholastic level. In the near term ahead, the Foundation aims to introduce classes up to the senior scholastic level and has already commenced steps in that direction with an ongoing infrastructural expansion project and the completion of necessary registration formalities with the State of Uttar Pradesh.

The Foundation has applied to the Uttar Pradesh Education Board (the Board) for the formal recognition and registration of the School with the Board up to the middle scholastic level. The application has been accepted by the Board and is under consideration.

The Foundation proposes to then apply for formal recognition and registration of the School with the Board up to the senior scholastic level.
Amongst its disciplines, the School imparts computer and technical education The School also contributes to the local population by way of imparting awareness on basic health and hygiene matters. The School's administrators comprise of a group of competent academicians from diverse backgrounds. The School’s administrators manage the School and have been instrumental in spreading its message.
The School bears all necessary architectural and building related safety certifications including, without limitation, a fire safety certificate from the Uttar Pradesh Fire Service Department, Bareilly.
