Our Story Since 2008

About Maya Foundation

Dedicated to transforming lives through education, empowerment, and community development across Karnataka, India.

Our Journey of Impact

Maya Education and Social Welfare Foundation was born from a simple yet powerful belief: every child deserves access to quality education, regardless of their socio-economic background.

Founded in 2008 in Belagavi, Karnataka, we started with a small group of dedicated volunteers and a big dream. What began as informal tutoring sessions for underprivileged children has grown into a comprehensive organization serving over 1,200 students across 40+ schools.

Our approach goes beyond traditional education. We believe in holistic development that includes digital literacy, skill development, health awareness, and community empowerment. Through our various programs, we've not just educated children but transformed entire communities.

Today, Maya Foundation stands as a beacon of hope, proving that with dedication, community support, and innovative approaches, we can break the cycle of poverty through education.
