Programs

  • Dream slum

    Dream Slum is a dynamic plan in full motion, centered on quality education, accessible healthcare, a secure environment, and empowered families.
    Dream Schools have well-equipped benches and necessary stationery to slum children, ensuring access to education. Amid the challenges posed by the Covid-19 pandemic and its second wave, which devastated many livelihoods, the foundation launched a ration scheme to provide families in adopted slums with regular ration kits, offering vital support. We continually develop these slums to meet their needs, adorning them with painted tin walls, clean surroundings, gardens, and dustbins, creating an environment conducive to growth.
    The foundation extends its effort to create sustainable livelihoods. Through the Dream Slum Project, the foundation generates livelihood opportunities for families in diverse ways.

  • Dream school

    Vishalakshi foundation is dedicated to providing quality education and opportunities to children living in slums. Our Dream Schools are designed for holistic development, enabling children to chase their aspirations, achieve self-sufficiency, and build a brighter future.
    Presently, we oversee operations in four Dream Schools—two in Gurgaon and two in Lucknow—catering to over 300 promising young minds. Even in the face of the Covid-19 pandemic, these schools continue to function, strictly adhering to social distancing guidelines.
    Our Dream School concept extends beyond academics, encompassing various activities such as early morning exercises, yoga sessions, gratitude days, and sports events.
    Regular snack breaks are incorporated to motivate and uplift the spirits of the children.
    These schools boast properly furnished benches, adequate stationery supplies, and competent mentors.
