2007. The sole purpose behind starting this organization is to work for the upliftment

children in India, who, deprived of ample wealth and proper education become

a gap between the affluent people and the impoverished section of the society.
The mission of the organization is to emphasise the value of
education in society by improving
the methodology and technology of teaching for providing effectual education to
the deprived and destitute children and to establish activity centers to train
and enhance their skills in sports, games, painting, music, dancing, debate. It’s
main objective is to aid them in leading a quality life of morality, dignity,
justice, equality and harmony. Several initiatives are undertaken every year

among the weaker sections of the society. Parakh is like a ray of hope who is in
the path of making a miracle in these children’s small world to make them a
