About Pehchaan The Street School
Pehchaan The Street School (Trust) is an eight-year-old organisation working across various slum areas in Delhi NCR. The primary objective of the organisation is to provide free education to underprivileged children.
“Pehchaan” means ‘Identity’. Pehchaan The Street School focuses on providing Pehchaan – an identity to underprivileged children by providing them with education. Educating underprivileged children and availing them with resources enough to become economically independent. For over 8 years now, while we have emphasized the value of education as a fundamental right that ought to be accessible to every child out there with a desire to learn, we aim to go beyond education. The institutionalization and commodification of education across our country have severely restricted the ability of the underprivileged to access means of vocational and academic studies, and that’s the barrier that we aim to break with pehchaan, the street school.
