    2020

Asude (असुदे) is a Marathi word that means “Acceptance”. Asude Foundation was born during the COVID-19 pandemic crisis in 2020 when we witnessed a Read moren unprecedented disruption in school education across India. This limited learning opportunities for children, especially the underprivileged. The challenges urged us to look for solutions to facilitate lifelong and holistic learning opportunities for children: “शाळा बंद आहेत, पण शशक्षण चालु असुदे!”; “The schools are shut, but let the learning continue (Asude!).” Geography: We are working in Aurangabad (Ch. Sambhajinagar) district, the divisional headquarters of the Marathwada division of Maharashtra. Marathwada region is one of India's most chronically drought-affected and rainfall-deficit regions.
