Improving educational opportunities in India for disadvantaged children
School Aid India, also known as SAI, is a small charity based in Great Ayton, North Yorkshire, UK.
The inspiration for SAI arose from contacts built up with local people over the course of several visits to the Darjeeling area, in the foothills of the Indian Himalayas. Anyone who believes that children don’t like school has not seen children of all ages in India, willingly walking miles in all weathers just to get to school each day.
Our trustees include 3 teachers, 2 chemical engineers, and a business man.
All our administration is done by volunteers, and the cost of travel to India is not met from Charity funds. All donations are sent directly to India to support our work there.
We would love you to support our work through the 140 Club. All the information you need is found here.
