Education is an empowering force in the world. It creates knowledge, builds confidence, and breaks down barriers to opportunity. It equips children with the qualities and skills to shape and build their future. Unfortunately, there are still millions of children across the world who lack access to affordable quality education. A country like India faces this challenge, especially with children from low-income families.
Varthana Finance aims to overcome this gap by providing short and long-term financing to more than 3,500 affordable private schools. These education institutions enroll children from low-income and lower middle-income households, thereby impacting the lives of an estimated 2.5 million children.
Schools typically use Varthana’s loans to improve or expand building infrastructure, such as adding classrooms, or to buy new education materials.
This investment shows that financial inclusion also plays a crucial role in addressing other pressing issues, such as access to affordable quality education, which is seen as one of the key pillars to alleviate poverty.
