About Me

I have been with Aseema since 2017 and currently work as the sports teacher at Aseema Bal Shaikshanik Kendra (ABSK). Coming from the local tribal community, I feel deeply connected to my students and find it truly rewarding to work with tribal children.

I am passionate about dedicating myself fully to supporting tribal children and helping them achieve their potential. Participating in the Tata Mumbai Marathon 2026 is a personal dream and an inspiring milestone for me. It also gives me an opportunity to set bigger goals for the children at Aseema and ABSK, motivating them to dream big and aim high.

Appeal

Join the Marathon of Education. Every Child, Every Future.

Every day, more than 3,500 children walk into Aseema’s classrooms — children from families where education has often felt out of reach. Here, they find inspiring teachers, nutritious meals, and the confidence that their dreams matter.

For over 25 years, Aseema has worked to ensure these opportunities never stop. Yet the world of funding can be unpredictable. To keep delivering consistent education and care, we must strengthen our ability to plan ahead and stand strong for every child — today and for generations to come.

That’s why this year, through the Tata Mumbai Marathon, we are aiming to raise funds to secure the future of every Aseema child — so their education continues uninterrupted, and the cycle of empowerment carries forward to future generations.

Your contribution will:
- Keep classrooms open for 3,500+ children
- Provide books, resources, and safe learning spaces
- Support teachers who guide and mentor them every day
- Ensure every child receives a nutritious meal daily
- Open doors to opportunities that would otherwise be out of reach

Your gift, big or small, fuels education, empowerment, and brighter futures.

*Your donation will help build Aseema’s corpus funds, creating a sustainable future for every child.*
