About Akshar Jyoti
Making India Totally Literate
India has an estimated 20 crore adults who cannot read or write. Behind this number are millions of people who
face everyday challenges simply because they lack the ability to read a signboard, fill out a form, read a
message or help their children with their studies.
Akshar Jyoti, an initiative of India Humanity Foundation (IHF), is committed to changing this reality. Through
structured adult literacy programmes, we empower non-literate adults with essential reading, writing and
numeracy skills, opening doors to greater independence, dignity and opportunity.
Our vision is simple yet powerful: An India where every adult can read, write and participate fully in society.
With your support, we can bring this vision closer to reality.
