The Promising Slate is the education platform of Arshiya Foundation. We are developing several initiatives in the area of education working with multiple partners in this space.
We believe in the promise of a high quality education for underprivileged children that is aimed at expanding their opportunity set, and giving them a better tomorrow.
As one of the projects of The Promising Slate platform, we are helping Marwari Vidyalaya High School, an 105-year- old institution in Mumbai, serving first generation students from low-income families.
In further projects, we will be developing a vocational training program along with classroom education so that older children can aspire to better jobs.
We also want to provide financial education to adults, to help them develop healthy habits such as saving to improve their financial situation.
To use the power of education to guide people of all ages towards better opportunities.
