About Your Foundation

Our journey of hope and transformation across rural India since 2005

Founder's Message

Ananya Mehta

Founder & Chairperson

Dear Friends, In 2005, I visited a village in Rajasthan where not a single child attended school. The nearest school was 15 kilometres away, and most families couldn’t afford the bus fare, let alone books and uniforms. That day, under a banyan tree, I started teaching 12 children. That was the first “classroom” of Your Foundation. Today, 20 years later, those 12 children have grown into 50,000+ lives touched, 45 schools built, and a team of 2,500 volunteers across 12 states. But the work is far from done. Millions of children in India still lack access to basic education and healthcare. Your support — whether it’s a donation, volunteering your time, or simply spreading the word — makes all the difference. With gratitude, Ananya Mehta
