March 2023, London, UK - Rainbow Boosters, a non-profit organization dedicated to giving underprivileged communities transformative boosts, is proud to announce two new partnerships with Kuma Foundation and the Pandit Abaji Panshikar Foundation. The partnerships are crucial in support of closing the digital divide and providing essential resources to children in need.
The new partnership will provide Rainbow Boosters with funding and additional resources to deliver the first project; building a computer lab at a rural school in Pune, India. Opening in June, the lab will serve as a vital resource for disadvantaged students who lack access to technology and the internet. The facility will be used to deliver computer classes and internet access to children from low-income families, providing them with the opportunity to gain the technological skills they need to succeed in today's digital world.
"We are thrilled to welcome Kuma Foundation and the Pandit Abaji Panshikar Foundation as new partners in our mission to connect communities and be a ‘ray of sunshine’ for those who live under dark clouds," said Rainbow Boosters Founder Pritesh Chauhan. "The new computer lab at the Bal Siddhanath Vidyalaya School, Village Belsar, Taluka Puranadar, in Pune, will be a great example of what shared values, collaboration and dedication to improving the education system can achieve. Our progress and ability to deliver this first Rainbow Booster project would not be possible without their support and dedication."
Kuma Foundation Founder Ray Kimble, a non-profit organization built on the principle that all kids deserve a chance at a high-tech future, is looking to expand the impressive impact it had in the US to other countries and sees Rainbow Boosters as the right project to explore this growth.
"We are excited to partner with Rainbow Boosters and support this important initiative," said Ray Kimble.
"We understand the vital role that technology plays in a child's education and future success and are proud to contribute to this effort."
The Pandit Abaji Panshikar Foundation, founded by Navanath Shinde, who himself has felt the impact of having been given a life-transforming boost at a young age, is dedicated to promoting education and cultural awareness among these young rural students and acts as a crucial player on the ground in India, liaising and coordinating with the school committee and other key parties.
Navanath Shinde stated, "We believe that every child deserves access to good education and the resources they need to reach their full potential. We are honoured to partner with Rainbow Boosters in achieving this goal and look forward to contributing to the success of this project."
Rainbow Boosters is the brainchild of Pritesh Chauhan and his son Rayan Prem (6 years old), who are asking people they know to help those who are less fortunate than them, in an attempt to create opportunities and a more equal world.
Through their approach of ‘conscious giving,’ they want to create connections for those who donate time and funds in order to make the whole experience richer for all involved.
