Our Story: Charity Truly Begins at Home
The Founder.
Sri Bala-Krishna Charitable Trust was established in 2013 in Bengaluru by SRI. Prabhakar Balakrishna. As a former lecturer/professor at the Department of Technical Education of The Government of Karnataka, the accessibility to education for students of all age groups was a driving force in this endeavour. Education was always given the highest importance within his parents and his family.
Witnessing numerous impoverished children dropping out of schools to support their families made him feel that this has to change. He wanted each one of them to have the same opportunities he was given as child. To provide a better future for such children, he formed this Trust with the help of his family and friends.
The Vision.
To provide basic necessities for the underprivileged children and thus enable them to have a successful and fulfilling life
To help them lead a life that is devoid of gender, caste and religious discrimination and provide equal opportunities to everyone
To provide job opportunities to marginalized people to enable them shape their future as well as their children.
