Compassion first
A hungry, frightened or humiliated child cannot learn. We look after the student before we look at the syllabus.
Who we are
Education that asks nothing in return
Aspire Caring Education — better known as ACE Education — is the education wing of Caring Hand Foundation, Yavatmal. We exist for one reason: a child's future should depend on their effort, never on their family's bank balance.
An initiative of Caring Hand Foundation, Yavatmal
Our story
It started with a few teachers and a borrowed room
In the bastis around Yavatmal's industrial area, plenty of children go to school — and quietly fall behind anyway. Parents work long hours as daily-wage labourers, farm workers and small vendors. There is nobody at home to check the homework, and private tuition costs more than a month's ration.
Caring Hand Foundation, Yavatmal was formed by local teachers, professionals and social workers who had watched this happen for years. They began with free evening classes for a handful of neighbourhood children, in a room lent by a well-wisher, with second-hand books and their own free time.
Word travelled. Parents started walking their children over. Older students who had finished school came asking for help with government job exams — the one honest ladder out of poverty in our district, and one that needs guidance most families cannot buy. The Foundation answered by creating a dedicated education wing: Aspire Caring Education.
Today ACE Education runs school-support batches and a full competitive-exam programme from its centre at Kamla Park, Lohara. Everything is still free. Everything is still funded by donors and taught largely by volunteers. And the promise has not changed since that first borrowed room.

Our Mission
To provide free, high-quality education and career preparation to children and youth from underprivileged families in Yavatmal — so that poverty stops being the reason a bright student drops out, and a government job stops being something only coaching-class money can buy.
Our Vision
A Yavatmal where every child completes school with confidence, every willing aspirant gets a fair shot at a government job, and the students we teach today come back tomorrow as the teachers, officers and donors of Caring Hand Foundation.
What we stand for
Six values that run every classroom
These are the working rules of Caring Hand Foundation, Yavatmal, not framed words on a wall.
Always free
No admission fee, no tuition fee, no hidden charges. If a family cannot afford books, we provide those too.
Transparency
Donations, expenses and attendance are recorded and open to review by our donors and the community we serve.
Equality
Every child is welcome regardless of caste, religion, gender or background. Merit here means effort, not privilege.
Result-oriented
Kindness without outcomes is not enough. We track tests, attendance and selections, and we correct what is not working.
Learn, Grow, Achieve
Our motto is a sequence, not a slogan — build the basics, build the person, and the achievement follows.

From a borrowed room to a full centre
