Vivekananda Institute of Values | Ramakrishna Mission, Gurugram
Give me a hundred energetic young men and women, and I shall transform this country.
Children today are being shaped by academic demands, social media, peer pressure — without the guidance to make sense of any of it.
A child’s mind is shaped every single day. The question is, by whom? And for what?
This is the foundation that VIVA is building.
VIVA’s programs awaken in every child what they already carry within — infinite strength, and the ability to choose it for themselves. This is Atmashraddhā, self-belief, the foundation Swami Vivekananda placed at the heart of true education.
“Earlier, whenever I would see someone in need, I would just pass by them. After the program, I always help someone in need. I want to be a responsible citizen for my country.”
“They are very disciplined now. Not by force, but by choice.”
Each school partnership includes: trained facilitators, teacher orientation and training, facilitation kits and guides, regular classroom visits, and independent impact assessments.
This is not a one-time workshop. It is a sustained, multi-year commitment to every school VIVA takes on.
The only true teacher is he who can immediately come down to the level of the student, and transfer his soul to the student’s soul.
For as little as ₹2 per child, per month, you can bring VIVA’s program to an entire school.
How you can contribute…
This is not a donation that disappears into overheads. It is years of trained facilitators, monitored classrooms, and measured change — reaching a new set of 500 children, year after year, helping them grow into the awakened citizens Swami Vivekananda envisioned.
