Art as a tool for empowerment
The Akanksha Foundation is a non-profit organisation with a mission to provide children from low-income communities with a high-quality education, enabling them to maximise their potential and transform their lives. Today, Akanksha is one of the largest urban networks of public-private partnership schools of its kind in India.
Art has been one of the strongest co-curricular programmes within Akanksha — helping children discover, create and tell their own stories.

Third Planet From The Sun
How do we get children to be active participants in their reality? Are we truly listening to their ideas, questions and hopes?
Our products carry stories and voices from the classroom. These limited edition pieces offer a glimpse into how children see their world.
Proceeds support our art programme to reach schools beyond Akanksha, helping more children use art as a tool for expression, reflection and change.
"It's not just art — it's voice, agency and possibility."

The Akanksha-HDFC association has been truly acknowledged by business channels as well as customers of the bank. It has helped us garner patronage from our customers, and gives us a chance to give back to society.
It's been over a decade that I have been hosting Art for Akanksha for their Home Bazaar. What started as a curious experiment is now a full-fledged annual event that our friends and neighbours wait for eagerly every year.
