Upakriti does a great job of vetting the educational charities/organizations that they sponsor. They go through a very thorough application process that involves onsite visits and regular progress updates for all projects. You have confidence that your entire donation goes directly to fund the needs of the children. Two of the worthy organizations supported in particular deserve recognition, SOCARE and CHES. SOCARE provides care for the children of prisoners and CHES serves the needs of children who are or come from families afflicted with AIDS. The children in these communities are given love and support and know that with an education they can do anything!

Upakriti's goal is to enable all underprivileged kids get the same kind of education and opportunities as any normal kid should get. Over the years Upakriti has managed to provide that to thousands of kids with some of them graduating from college now and finding employment. Happy and humbled to be part of this longstanding and sustained team effort!!!

Upakriti is a wonderful organization working for a great cause. I appreciate the integrity with which they operate. We really enjoyed some of their children's events in 2011 and 2013 and are looking forward to more such events.

I helped and donated at the fund-raising campaign for school bags that Upakriti did in 2013 for AIDS affected children.

I am a volunteer/ donor @ Upakriti. I have been closely associated with them for a few years now working closely with the organizations that they support in India. It is a really special feeling to see our efforts going toward something priceless like a smile or a thank you from these underpriveleged children. We recently ran the SEVATHON run and CHES school-bag campaigns to raise funds for the school-going kids with special needs. Upakriti has made my philantropic work take on some meaning and the way they do it really deserves praise. A fine team of men and women that make things happen here for these children, trying to turn their dreams into reality...I look forward to working with them more, in the future.
