Here are some thoughts from Akanksha children, staff and teachers.

Respect and trust were new words for me. But in Akanksha these words became special to me.
Varsha

In my life my teachers are important because without them I would not study, I would not learn anything. I would not get any information about anything.
Ravi

My teachers are important in my life because they teach me how to behave, how to face our problems, be brave, they give me lots of love, show me the right path and make me educated. They save me from being uneducated.
Kavita

When all the boys do not listen to Anjali Didi then she is became very livid and says, "this is absurd".
Shehnaz

To win someone's heart is very difficult so for that we should have Didi's and Sir's who teach us values and respect.
Neeta

Akanksha makes me believe that every individual has the potential for greatness if only we make the effort to help them discover it.
Priya Didi

Akanksha is an organised, loving workplace which maintains very high standards of imparting education to the children who have fewer opportunities. I' ve learnt that a highly unstructured target audience can be taught in a very structured way. Although I'm accountable for my work, I'm not bound by it, thus leaving me free to be creative and perhaps more productive. I love the effort and thinking that has gone into creating an awe - inspiring organization with a team of like minded people and able leadership.
Shalaka Didi

For me Akanksha stands for self-respect and personal growth.
Anita Didi

At Akanksha I have learnt to never give up and with every hurdle that I face, I have grown.
Kanchan Didi

Akanksha is like second home to me
Ritika Didi

Akanksha is a canvas for us to paint our dreams on
Amita Didi

Akanksha is a place where I can be myself!
Karishma Didi

A place where teaching is as much fun as learning. Akanksha is more a way of life for me than just a job.
Mahalaxmi Didi

Where dreams come true, where our kids never cease to surprise me, where I do things not because I have to but because I want to and hence receive much more than I give.
Reeves Bhaiya

AKANKSHA in true sense means "COLOURS" to me.
Not just the colours I see in the drawings of children, but the colours hidden within each one of us. Akanksha means discovering these colours within.
Sheetal Didi

Akanksha's depth of involvement in the life of every child is truly unique. Rarely does one see such a commitment in any vendor-client relationship.
Sriram Bhaiya

Akanksha has really helped me trap a lot of hidden potential and helped me get over many of my inhibitions. I have met the most creative, talented, intellectual, warm, sensitive, helpful people who have taught me how to work hard without complaining, taught me sensitivity, and passion for work.
Niki Didi

Akanksha is a place where magic, beliefs and dreams meet according to me.
Rajshree Didi

Akanksha is no longer restricted to the teaching process in a classroom, but
has elevated itself to the process of overall development of the child - to
become confident, self-reliant and capable of dreaming of a better tomorrow.
Anita Didi

I have learnt how a small effort from our side can
make a big difference in others' lives. I have learnt how the world is so much more than the
four walls of our own self.
Deba Didi

Akanksha means endless opportunites for me to change myself. And by changing myself, I can hope to change the person next to me.
Rachna Didi

Akanksha is about a process of improving ourselves, our students, our relationship with people and spreading hope to India through positive action.
