SIRI foundation was started earnestly with an idea to improve the lives of underprivileged kids by two passionate individuals residing across the globe but with one common thought! This passion turned into reality and SIRI foundation was born in July, 2010

One of the founders says: As I walked past the rusty old school building, during a visit to grandparents village, a long line of school kids standing under the sun holding lunch plates intrigued me. Indeed, the students were waiting for one good meal of the day, no sanitation, no electricity or any basic amenities, almost nothing changed for the last 60 years of the school’s existence. I asked two questions to myself – how long should I wait on sidelines to do something? Why can’t I do something instead of blaming government, people, corruption and myriad of other problems? Thus born Siri foundation a month later under the direction of Asha for education Kansas City Chapter.

In December 2011, true to its slogan – Supporting education at the grass roots level especially for underprivileged children - first ever library in the village Lingapuram and for the school with over 2000 books was opened. A year later another Library was opened at Vechalam village. Since then there has been no looking back! The third Library and information center is scheduled to open in the village Koduru in July 2014. The out-pouring support from the local community, the generosity of many-many individuals with their time and money has made the most impossible and improbable things to succeed! Starting with school libraries to scholarships for higher education and drinking water to basic electricity and sanitation, in less than four years, this young organization has touched and inspired over 500+ students in three different rural schools. The simple “joy of making difference in others life” is supported by many volunteers around the world just like you!

If not all, most of the Siri volunteers on the ground are teaching staff at rural schools, very close to the real “need in helping underprivileged kids” with so many heart-warming stories. With your support anything is possible - As Mahatma Gandhi once said

“Whatever you do may seem insignificant, but it is very important that you do it”

We truly hope that you are inspired as much as we are at SIRI to support education and sow the seeds for a better tomorrow!
