AIM for Seva
AIM for Seva was born from the heart-led mission of founder Swami Dayananda Saraswati to address the obstacles faced by children of impoverished rural India in accessing quality education and health care. The concept of building chatralaya, or free student homes, in close proximity to schools took root, bringing value-based education right to their doorstep – and forming the foundation of our unique holistic model of care and support. Our chatralaya serve as a true home away from home in every sense, providing a loving, nurturing environment and a richly balanced life for children from grades 4 through 12.
Since 2000, AIM for Seva’s chatralaya, schools and hospitals have been making it possible for these children to develop into healthy, self-confident, responsible citizens – fully prepared for career and life.
