Through our sustained and progressive intervention to see transformation in the community and our beneficiaries empowered economically and socially.

YuvaLok’s mission to “invest in the lives” of the underprivileged children and young people with compassion through holistic care providing education, nutrition and developing vocational skills is an ongoing progressive and scalable program. The program of YuvaLok reduces poverty and challenges gender inequalities and improves the social and physical environments. Our service to the local community focusing on breaking the generational poverty and the effects thereof is primarily through education and nutrition.
YuvaLok delivers holistic educational services to meet people at their point of need. The age old trusted method of education being the main arm to break the generational poverty, is one of the main interventions YuvaLok Foundation puts to use to emancipate them from their poverty. With this mandate with us we press on with our objective of providing wholesome quality education to these beneficiaries through our education program. The organization has expanded its range of services to meet these needs wherever and whenever possible.
The visibility of malnutrition constrained us to provide for the child's nutritional needs for which we have a nutrition program in place meeting 2/3rd of the child's nutritional need each day. The unhygienic living conditions and ill-health has been a challenge for us to intervene in the community and since we lack infrastructure in this area we network with other like-minded NGO's, to provide the basic help.

Sustainable livelihood programs cater to the needs of the many who are unable to progress in the area of education due to various challenges and the scope of economic empowerment through such skill based programs helps them to learn sustainable trades which gives them economic independence through gainful employment.
