People Behind the Mission

Our Team

Meet the program leaders, board members, facilitators, and volunteers working together to cultivate a love for science and learning in every child.

The Shivalik Children's Science Foundation team is comprised of passionate educators, science communicators, development professionals, and volunteers who have come together with a single mission: to make hands-on science learning accessible to every child, particularly in under-resourced regions.

Our team is a blend of experienced mentors and enthusiastic young educators, all driven by the Foundation's core values. We believe that true education goes beyond textbooks. Through our interactive science workshops, practical learning spaces, and research programs, we endeavor to create environments where children have the freedom to ask questions, explore ideas, and build confidence in their abilities.

Together, guided by our principle 'Pay Back to Society,' we continuously strive to make learning personally rewarding for children and community members alike.

“Science should not be confined to textbooks; it should become a way of thinking, questioning, and looking at the world.”

When we founded the Shivalik Children Science Foundation on November 15, 2021, we started with a simple yet powerful belief: science should not be confined to textbooks. It is not just a subject to pass in exams; it is a way of thinking, questioning, and looking at the world.

As the Founder and President, nothing fulfills me more than seeing the spark in a child's eyes when they build a science model with their own hands, gaze through a telescope for the first time, or write their very first line of code. That curiosity is where the future begins.

“A dream born from a simple desire—to give back to society through education and science.”

Shivalik Children's Science Foundation is more than an organization for me; it is a dream born from a simple desire—to give back to society through education and science.

Over the years, I have met many children whose curiosity to learn was extraordinary, yet they lacked opportunities, resources, and guidance. Their eagerness to understand the world around them inspired me to create a platform where every child can explore, question, experiment, and grow without limitations.

“A commitment to creating opportunities where they are needed the most.”

For me, Shivalik Children's Science Foundation represents a commitment to creating opportunities where they are needed the most. I have always believed that every child possesses natural curiosity, creativity, and the ability to achieve remarkable things when provided with the right guidance and environment.

The inspiration behind this mission comes from observing children who are eager to learn, ask questions, and dream big despite facing various challenges. Their determination reminds us that talent exists everywhere, but access to quality learning opportunities does not. This realization motivates us to work towards making science and education more accessible, engaging, and meaningful.

“Every child is born with a natural sense of curiosity; sometimes they only need encouragement to explore.”

I have always believed that every child is born with a natural sense of curiosity. The questions they ask, the wonder they feel, and the excitement of discovering something new are the foundations of true learning. Sometimes, all they need is encouragement to explore, question, and believe in their own potential.

Growing up, science taught me to look at the world with wonder, and today, my greatest satisfaction comes from seeing that same spark in the eyes of young learners. Through the Shivalik Children Science Foundation, we strive to create experiences that inspire children to think, explore, and discover for themselves. Our goal is not simply to provide answers, but to nurture the confidence to ask questions and the curiosity to seek possibilities.

“Creating an environment where children are not afraid of science and mathematics.”

Whenever I visit schools and interact with students, I notice one common thing—many children are curious and eager to learn, but they often don't get enough opportunities to experience science beyond their textbooks. They learn formulas, definitions, and theories, but very few get the chance to perform experiments, ask questions freely, or see how science actually works in real life.

This observation became one of the main reasons behind the work we do at the Shivalik Children Science Foundation. Our foundation was created with the belief that every child deserves access to practical and engaging science education, whether they study in a city school or a small rural school. We want children to understand that science is not just a subject to pass examinations; it is a way of thinking, exploring, and solving problems.

"Knowledge is considered as the form of 'Parabrahma'."

Shivalik Children Science Foundation is also a knowledgeable foundation for all those children who need a little support and light in their life to blossom like a flower by knowing their interests, talents, and abilities. Our main purpose is to remove the fear that comes into the minds and hearts of youngsters, which prevents them from showing their potential.
