Asha for Education is a non-profit organization dedicated to the support of basic education in India. Asha, which means hope in many Indian dialects, was founded at the University of California, Berkeley in 1991 and has since grown to over 50 chapters scattered throughout the United States, Europe, East Asia and India. Each of these chapters raises funds to support various education-related projects in India.
Asha Princeton was started in August 1998. Its members consist of students and professionals in the northern and central New Jersey area. The aim of the group has been to mobilize the substantial local Indian community to collectively support and provide financial assistance to grassroots level educational movements in India. We specifically target programs for basic education for under-privileged children in India. Asha-Princeton is a non-profit voluntary organization. The group only supports apolitical and secular organizations.
