Led by people who have done this before
Care Education brings together a team with years of hands-on experience in community work, corporate partnerships and skills training. That experience shapes how every programme is designed and run.
Grassroots initiatives
Working directly with communities on locally led initiatives, alongside residents and local leaders.
CSR partnerships
Designing and delivering programmes with corporate partners, with the planning, governance and reporting CSR teams expect.
Training and skill development
Running practical training that helps people build skills for work, everyday life and the digital world.

About us
A small society with a clear purpose
Care Education was registered in Punjab in 2010 by people who believe that learning, at any age, is how individuals and whole communities move forward.
Why we exist
Opportunity is not spread evenly. In many neighbourhoods and villages, adults never had the chance to finish school, young people lack the digital skills today's jobs ask for, and local problems go unsolved for want of a little organisation.
We work alongside these communities, not on their behalf. Our programmes are practical and local, and we measure success by what people can do for themselves afterwards.
Our mission
To strengthen communities across India through locally led development, education and technology, with a focus on weaker and underserved sections of society.
Our vision
Communities where everyone can learn, take part in a digital world, and shape the place they live in.
Our team
The people behind Care Education bring years of experience in grassroots initiatives, CSR partnerships with corporates, and training and skill development.

Where we work
Working with communities across India
Our registered office is in Punjab, and our programmes are open to communities in every region of the country, delivered through local partners, a nationwide volunteer network and online learning.
How we reach communities
Local presence, national reach
We combine people on the ground with online delivery, so a programme designed in one place can reach communities anywhere in India.
Local partners
NGOs, schools, panchayats and residents' associations who know their communities, building on relationships from our team's grassroots work.
Volunteer network
Teachers, professionals and students in cities across India who give their time in person or remotely.
Online learning
Live and recorded sessions in Hindi, English and regional languages, reaching people wherever they are.
Bring us to your community
Wherever you are in India, if you are a sarpanch, school principal, residents' association member or community leader, tell us what your area needs and we will explore how we can help.
