Asha-Toledo is a chapter of Asha for Education, a non-profit voluntary organization dedicated to bring socio-economic change in India, mainly using the medium of education. In addition, whenever possible, we also try to address other related issues such as health care, environment and women empowerment. We have no religious or political affiliation. Our aim is to mobilize the local population to collectively support and provide assistance in different forms to groups working at the grass roots in India. Our volunteer meetings are open to anyone interested in social and developmental issues.



Our primary objective is to provide education to the underprivileged children of India. In addition, whenever possible, we try to address other related issues such as health care, environment, socio-economic and women's empowerment.



Our emphasis is on the following:



- Form close partnerships with groups in India. We attempt to maintain regular contact and visit the groups we work with to form a stable long term relationship.



- To maximize effectiveness of our efforts we seek to support groups in rural and economically poor areas.



- Provide assistance in different ways such as financial, material and technological support to the groups in India.



- We strive to learn about and disseminate information on different social issues faced by the affected people in India.
