For over 10 years, GKF has been a steadfast champion of our holistic and innovative programs. We are deeply grateful for Guru Krupa’s unwavering commitment to our organization.
The Guru Krupa Foundation (GKF) is a private foundation incorporated in the state of New York. The purpose of the foundation is to fund several charitable causes in India and the US.

“Since 2014, GKF has been funding several projects at EDUCATR related to the Chakkaravarthy Vidyalaya Nursery and Primary school and education and support for children. They have helped with providing infrastructure (books, computers, digital classroom etc) for the school, and helped with expenses related to teacher salaries. They have also helped us provide COVID related support to students and their parents, including paying the school fees of 200 children. Most recently, they have funded us to establish a bridge education system (after-school hours, non-formal) to address learning loss due to COVID.”

2025–2026 Project Supported by Guru Krupa Foundation (USA)
EDUCATR is deeply grateful to Guru Krupa Foundation (USA) for its continued partnership and generous support in transforming the lives of vulnerable children through quality education and holistic child development.
During the 2025–2026 project period, Guru Krupa Foundation supported the successful implementation of an integrated programme benefiting children from economically disadvantaged families in rural communities of Usilampatti, Madurai District, Tamil Nadu. The project was designed to ensure that every child has access to quality education, adequate nutrition, a safe learning environment, and opportunities to realise their full potential.
With the generous support of Guru Krupa Foundation, EDUCATR successfully provided quality primary education to 304 children, operated 10 Bridge School Education Centres benefiting 324 children, and extended school fee assistance to 122 children from vulnerable families, enabling them to continue their education without interruption. The project also provided nutritious supplementary food, organised health promotion programmes and medical check-ups, strengthened teachers’ professional capacities through training, empowered parents through awareness programmes, and promoted Child Rights and child protection across all project activities.
Child Rights remained the foundation of the programme, ensuring that every child was treated with dignity, equality, protection, and respect. Through child-centred teaching methodologies, community participation, parent engagement, and continuous monitoring, the project created safe and inclusive learning environments where children could learn, grow, and develop with confidence.
The successful implementation of this project reflects the shared vision of Guru Krupa Foundation and EDUCATR to create sustainable opportunities for disadvantaged children through education, health, nutrition, protection, and community development. Together, this partnership has strengthened families, empowered communities, and provided children with the knowledge, skills, and confidence needed to build brighter futures.
We sincerely thank Guru Krupa Foundation for its unwavering trust, partnership, and commitment to investing in the lives of children. Their generous support continues to create meaningful and lasting change, ensuring that hundreds of children have the opportunity to learn, thrive, and become responsible citizens who contribute positively to society.
