About Aasraa Trust

Aasraa Trust was established in Dehradun in 2009 as a social work trust focusing on education of underprivileged children, in response to a crisis for intervention for the welfare of children from the riverbed slum under Bindal bridge. Aasraa then worked with the riverbed community to promote the need for education and started an after-school project to augment school education. In 2011, Project Street Smart was started on the pavements of Astley Hall with a group of 5 street children. The objective was to keep the children off the streets and provide them with basic literacy through arts, crafts, music and audio-visual media.

Today, Aasraa works towards empowering street and slum children through education, vocational training, nutrition, medical care and providing shelter homes. Our mission is to level the playing field for children who have neither seen books nor stepped into a school. The children we work with come from extremely impoverished backgrounds and are mostly rag pickers, beggars, addicts, runaways and orphans. We currently work with 9000 children in Uttarakhand.
