TOUCH is a non-profit organization registered under the Bombay Public Trust Act 1950. TOUCH was founded in 1993 by a group of socially conscious, personally committed professionals and social activists to help the underprivileged children. Our team helps them realize their true potential by supporting their education with particular emphasis on their overall development.
The main aim of TOUCH is to build a network for the social and vocational rehabilitation of destitute children.
Our Beliefs
The health of the society is determined by the condition of children in that society. A child requires emotional and psychological support as well as assurance of care & opportunities for his/her balanced development.TOUCH believes in utilizing Education as a tool to transform the disadvantaged children into responsible human beings & enable them to easily blend into the mainstream society.
Our Journey
The desire to save the children living in hostile & neglected socio-economic conditions from a dark future through education, prompted a few youngsters who were blessed & encouraged by compassionate elders , to start TOUCH in 1994 for supporting education of students from Mumbai slums.
Today, TOUCH facilitates comprehensive educational, vocational & social rehabilitation of the disadvantaged children and adolescents from villages, tribal areas and urban slums in Maharashtra ,as well as select areas in other states of India through its various projects. It also facilitates Vocational education of the tribal youth and women residing near its BALGRAM to empower them which in turn will indirectly help the children in their families.
