Education for Indian Dalit Children

The Dayamani Foundation is a not-for-profit charity based in Australia. We are dedicated to improving the educational possibilities for under-privileged Dalit children living in Tenali, Andhra Pradesh, India.

The children at Dayamani Academy are from poverty-stricken families, sometimes orphaned by the death of one or both of their parents due to disease and/or violence. The academy supports the present generation of students from the untouchable caste, who will help lead their community into the future by providing an education. The Dayamani Academy also provides these children with three meals per day, as well as a comfortable place to sleep.
