About Bharti Airtel Foundation:

Quality education is the hallmark of a great nation; if we wish to see phenomenal changes in the world, we must strive to create an order that supports education and develops it. With a profound intent and commitment to make a difference, Bharti Airtel Foundation, the philanthropic arm of Bharti Enterprises, started its operations in the year 2000, to bring about a transformation in the education arena and thus the living condition of children and youth in rural India.

Since its inception, the Foundation has been proactively engaged in formulating and executing education programs at primary, secondary and tertiary levels. All its actions are driven by a necessity and resolve, not only to offer free education to the underprivileged children, but also to create opportunities that enable their holistic development.

Bharti Airtel Foundation consistently works to realize its vision, mission and goals in collaboration and partnership with its stakeholders, including government, corporate sector and rural community.
