About Company

Bharti Airtel Foundation, the philanthropic arm of Bharti Enterprises, started its operations in the year 2000, to bring about a transformation in the education arena and thus the living condition of children and youth in rural India.Since its inception, the Foundation has been proactively engaged in formulating and executing education programs at primary, secondary and tertiary levels. All its actions are driven by a necessity and resolve, not only to offer free education to the underprivileged children, but also to create opportunities that enable their holistic development.Bharti Airtel Foundation consistently works to realize its vision, mission and goals in collaboration and partnership with its stakeholders, including government, corporate sector and rural community.
In sync with its vision, Bharti Airtel Foundation initiated its Satya Bharti School Program in 2006. The program aims at providing education to rural children, with a special focus on girl child. The Satya Bharti Quality Support Program was initiated in 2013, by collaborating with government schools, so as to adopt good practices and learning techniques instilled by Satya Bharti School Program. Many students who did not have access to education or had to discontinue education due to adverse socio economic factors, have been successfully mainstreamed through the Satya Bharti Learning Centre Program (operational from 2013-2018) – a bridge course program developed for Out-of-School Children. Bharti Airtel Foundation has also been contributing to the field of Higher Education by establishing centers of learnings and research partnerships in collaboration with leading National and International Institutions. While the focus remains on quality education, the Foundation has also initiated a sanitation program, in line with government’s call for ‘Swachh Bharat Mission’ namely Satya Bharti Abhiyan in 2014.
