Who we are

Kokan NGO India (Kokan Kala Va Shikshan Vikas Sanstha) is a grassroots nonprofit working for the welfare of children, women, and underserved communities since 2010. Our mission is simple yet powerful — to ensure that every child, regardless of their background, has the opportunity to learn, grow, and build a brighter future. We work closely with rural communities, shelter homes, and low-income families, where access to educational resources is extremely limited.

Through our education programs, we strive to improve literacy, encourage reading habits, and create joyful learning environments for children who rarely have access to books or learning materials.

With the support of compassionate donors and partners, we aim to give children the tools, knowledge, and confidence they need to dream bigger and build a better future.


Our work and its impact

Over the past decade, we have impacted more than 1.4 million lives across Maharashtra through education support, school kit distribution, nutrition programs, health initiatives, and skill development programs for women.

In many rural schools across Maharashtra, children grow up without access to storybooks, libraries, or engaging learning resources. Most schools only have basic textbooks. There are no storybooks, no reading corners, and little opportunity for children to explore the joy of reading.

Without access to books:

    -Children struggle to develop reading habits
    -Their imagination and creativity remain limited
    -Learning often becomes boring and mechanical
For many rural children, owning or even reading a storybook is a rare experience. But one book can change a child's world. A storybook can spark curiosity, improve language skills, and inspire a child to dream beyond their circumstances.


How we will utilise these books

Through this fundraiser, Kokan NGO India aims to bring storybooks to rural children by creating small reading libraries and book corners in underserved schools.

With your support, we will:

    -Provide age-appropriate storybooks to rural schools
    -Set up reading corners and mini libraries
    -Conduct storytelling sessions and reading activities
    -Encourage children to build strong reading habits
Our volunteers and teachers will regularly engage children through interactive storytelling, reading circles, and creative reading activities that make reading fun and inspiring.

A simple book can open the door to imagination and opportunity. Together, we can help rural children discover the joy of reading and build a brighter future.
