Asude Foundation

Asude Foundation, founded by Harvard alumni, envisions providing a holistic education to every child in India. The Marathi word asude (असुदे) means “acceptance”, our core value which guides us to: “Accept the things that we cannot change, and have the courage to change the things we can.” Our flagship, the Industry Connect initiative, is a research-based curriculum dedicated to Grades 9 and 12, delivering hands-on career and life skills education to empower students to pursue their chosen paths in higher education and career streams. By focusing on improving transition from school to workforce, we aim to inspire long-term educational and career aspirations. Our education programs have reached over students and 465 teachers, creating opportunities in rural communities across Maharashtra.
