Aadarana Foundation USA
Aadarana Foundation USA Inc empowers orphaned and underprivileged children with education, nutrition, and essential resources to break the cycle of poverty and build brighter futures.
We are a U.S. registered 501(c)(3) public charity (EIN 37-2202641) serving children in Hyderabad, Telangana, India. We are entirely volunteer-run with no paid staff, so donor funds go directly into three core programs:
No Child Sleeps Hungry - daily nutrition for 400 children; $247.50 feeds one child for a full year.
Girl Child Education - school fees, uniforms, books, and supplies for 200 girls; $575 sponsors one girl for a year.
Educational Materials Kits - a 7-item premium learning kit for 500 children at $60 per child.
Programs are delivered on the ground through our FCRA-registered partner organization in Hyderabad, with oversight and reporting from our U.S. board. Every dollar is tracked to a child, a meal, or a classroom.
Lakshmi's mother pulled her out of school after fourth grade. There was no money for fees, and there was a younger brother whose education came first.
She was eleven, and she spent the next year at home.
Her name came to us through our partner in Hyderabad. Her sponsorship covered fees, uniforms, books, and a daily meal - $575 for the year. She went back to school.
She is in eighth grade now and wants to be a nurse. Her brother is still in school too.
Programs
No Child Sleeps Hungry
Hunger is the reason many children in Hyderabad stop attending school. This program provides daily nutritious meals to 400 orphaned and underprivileged children, so no child has to choose between eating and learning. $247.50 feeds one child for a full year.
Girl Child Education
When money is tight, girls are the first to be pulled out of school. This program covers school fees, uniforms, books, supplies, and daily meals for 200 girls in Hyderabad. A complete sponsorship is $575 per girl for a year — $350 for education and $225 for nutrition.
Educational Materials Kits
A child without notebooks or a school bag falls behind quickly. Each kit contains seven essential items — notebooks, stationery, a school bag, and study materials — at a cost of $60 per child. Our goal is to reach 500 children.
