Gully Classes Foundation

Amidst the COVID-19 pandemic, many students faced challenges with remote learning and accessing educational material. To address this issue, Gully Classes Foundation converted an old and closed government school into a Library and Reading Room, which now serves as a safe and accessible space for more than 70 students on a daily basis.

The Library and Reading Room feature extensive books and educational resources, enabling students to learn and expand their knowledge beyond their school curriculum. Gully Classes Foundation's efforts to provide a space for children to read, learn and access books and educational material are admirable, and the organization's commitment to education and access to resources is inspiring.

Amidst the bustling cityscape of Mumbai, Gully Classes Foundation stands as a beacon of hope and environmental stewardship. With a deep-rooted commitment to protecting Mother Earth, we have taken up the mantle of nurturing a generation of eco-conscious individuals. We involve students as passionate volunteers through activities like river, garden, and beach cleanup drives, igniting a sense of responsibility and reverence for nature. Our endeavours extend beyond cleanups as we embark on a journey to cultivate environmental awareness among the youth, inspiring them to become custodians of our precious planet. Additionally, our annual tree plantation events across diverse regions of India serve as a powerful testament to our dedication to reforestation and sustainable ecosystem preservation. Together, we unite as green warriors, fostering a harmonious coexistence with nature and sowing the seeds of hope for a greener, cleaner, and more sustainable future.

At Gully Classes Foundation, we believe in the transformative power of education and skills. Our courses not only focus on teaching Mehndi and Basic Beautician skills but also instil self-confidence and self-esteem in every woman we empower. By breaking barriers and enabling women to become financially independent, we contribute to building a more inclusive and progressive society. Join us in our mission to empower women as we continue to impact the lives of countless individuals in Mumbai. Together, we can create a future where women thrive and flourish, making a significant difference in their families and communities.

Gully Classes Foundation is dedicated to providing primary education to underprivileged children. Through our transformative program, "Gully Classes," we identify kids who face barriers like financial constraints, lack of documentation, or parental awareness hindering their access to education. We bridge this gap by supporting their enrollment in nearby government schools and providing after-school tuition, fostering a nurturing environment where these young minds can flourish.
1. Identifying Potential Scholars: Yearly surveys are conducted to identify children in underprivileged communities who are not attending school due to various challenges. We prioritize kids struggling with financial issues, needing more proper documentation, or having parents unaware of the importance of education.
2. Facilitating Enrollment in Government Schools: Once we identify the potential scholars, our dedicated team assists them in getting admission to nearby government schools. We believe every child deserves a chance at a quality education, and by ensuring their enrollment.
3. Providing After-School Tuition: GCF goes beyond mere enrollment. We understand that some children may need extra support to catch up with their peers. That is why we offer after-school tuition classes, where qualified and caring educators provide personalized attention, helping them bridge the learning gap and excel academically.
4. Fostering Holistic Development: Our commitment extends beyond academics. GCF organize weekly sessions designed to nurture the overall development of these young minds. These sessions include extracurricular activities, art, and interactive learning, enriching their education and encouraging creativity and critical thinking.
5. Creating a Supportive Environment: At Gully Classes, a supportive environment is crucial to a child's educational journey. We foster a sense of belonging and inclusivity, encouraging children to build strong bonds with their peers, teachers, and mentors.
