Education that works

Eklavya Education Foundation came into being in the year 1996 with a mission to revolutionize school education in India. It is a non-governmental, not-for-profit organisation established by young professionals, educators and businessmen to set up and run schools and teacher training colleges in a professional, modern and ethical manner.
Brief Introduction: In the year 1986 a company named Core Emballage Ltd formulated its investment philosophy, which simply put, is:

  • The second rupee earned will go to the employees in terms of better salaries, working conditions, etc.;
  • The third rupee earned will go to the shareholders;
  • The fourth rupee earned will go back to the society, from where, in a way, all the four rupees are being earned.
