Our Founding Story
Education, Mentorship, Sustainable Development
MyPragati was born from a transformative moment during a trek in the breathtaking Himalayas. Our founder, deeply moved by the natural beauty and the resilient spirit of the mountain communities, envisioned a future where education could unlock the potential within every child.
Surrounded by prayer flags fluttering in the mountain breeze and ancient prayer wheels spinning with the wisdom of generations, the vision became clear: to co-create sustainable development that honors local traditions while opening doors to new opportunities.
What started as inspiration from the mountains has grown into a thriving community initiative, rooted in the values of collaboration, respect, and unwavering commitment to educational excellence.
Three pillars guiding our work
Every program we run is built on these foundations — locally led, sustainably designed.
Education
Quality schooling, supplies, and academic support that keep every child learning beyond Grade 7 and into higher education.
Mentorship
Guidance from local tutors and Pragati Yodhas — role models who walk alongside students at every step of their journey.
Sustainable Development
Community-led initiatives that respect local traditions while opening doors to long-term, dignified opportunity.
