Our Activities
Welcome to Aalok Foundation
Child Health & Development
We at Aalok Foundation focus on empowering underprivileged children residing in Kolkata’s slums and overbridges. These children hail from impoverished backgrounds, lacking basic resources for survival.
Child Education
Education is pivotal in breaking the cycle of poverty and removing the darkness of ignorance. To brighten the lives of underprivileged slum children, Aalok Foundation offers possible assistance to ensure a smoother educational journey for them.
Health Camps
In underserved rural slum areas, accessing quality healthcare for children and their familiesremains a distant dream for many. We prioritize the health of children and women in these regions, where basic necessities are scarce. To tackle this challenge, we work to bridge the healthcare gap

” I visited a small Christmas celebration organized by ‘Alok Foundation’ on 23rd December 2023. Their efforts to improve the life of unprivileged children touches the grass root level in the truest sense of the word. The ability of the children to be happy and enjoy the little things among the harsh life they are forced to lead is truly inspiring. “
