One book can open a whole world
Books are the best source of knowledge, and knowledge is most useful when it is shared. Here is how you can help children in Bangalore read and learn, through Kritagyata Trust.
Knowledge grows when we share it
Interest in education is growing across India, and every child deserves the books that go with it: stories that spark imagination, plus textbooks and reference books that support school and professional learning.
The simplest way to support Kritagyata Trust is to spread the word. Tell your school, college, office or neighbourhood, and organise a book donation drive together.
