SOCIAL TRANSFORMATION EMPOWERING GIRLS FROM REMOTE AREAS
The Him Jyoti school started as a dream of our Founder, Late Shri Sudarshan Agarwal (Former Governor of Uttarakhand and Sikkim) in 2005 with 15 girls. Working relentlessly with the purpose of empowering girls from economically deprived areas, we remain committed in our efforts to expand our reach to every village in Uttarakhand.
