Education Partner Programmes

DMart Foundation believes in the transformative power of education. We partner with multiple organisations to create opportunities for underprivileged students, nurturing their potential and contributing to a brighter future.

Dakshana Foundation, Pune: Nurturing future leaders

Dakshana is a non-profit organisation committed to providing underprivileged students, predominantly from rural India, with the opportunity to pursue higher education. Through its residential programme, Dakshana offers free coaching for competitive exams such as JEE and NEET. With a proven track record of success, Dakshana has supported many students to secure admission in IITs, NITs and government medical colleges. DMart Foundation has been partnering with Dakshana for the past four years, supporting their mission to create a pipeline of future engineers and doctors from underprivileged backgrounds by sponsoring their scholarship programme.

Shanti Bhavan, Bangalore: Holistic development for children

DMart Foundation collaborates with Shanti Bhavan to provide children from underprivileged backgrounds with holistic education. Their residential programme offers a comprehensive approach to child development – providing 19 years of educational intervention, from ages 4 to 23. The programme covers emotional development, mental & physical fitness, social & cognitive growth and academic excellence of children. Through this programme, the students are supported from their first day of school to their first day at work. DMart Foundation has extended support by sponsoring a batch of children, helping them in breaking the cycle of poverty through education.
