Story from the ground: Once a small girl with rich dreams from a small village demanded her father to get her into that “big school” which she saw during a city visit". The father very unwillingly answered that he can’t afford the lavish and digital school for her. Later in the day when he cursed himself to be poor and insufficient, his friend made him aware of the Muskaan Dreams, which makes public schools into digital school, he gave him a hope to light up her daughter’s future.

Why we exist: In India, 80% of all the consisting primary schools are run by the government, one of the major reasons for the poor quality of education system is the absence of around 40% of teachers, lack of teachers training and lack of technical support to schools.
Muskaan Dreams is working towards filling this gap by using digital technology to help these children to build up their dreams. The digital tools along with the Hindi content of each subject are distributed to the public schools.
History: Muskaan Dreams was started in 2014 by Young social entrepreneur Abhishek Dubey along with few friends. Currently, operating in 3 cities of MP namely Gwalior, Bhopal & Indore. The social startup aims to transform 30 rural government schools in MP through Digital learning classrooms for the students with this funding amount.
Abhishek Dubey and Rishi Raj (Co-founders) Muskaan Dreams said, “We always wanted to support and dedicate our life serving the children from rural areas from a very early age. we believe that education in the rural segment should be promoted as it has a more significant role to play in the growth of the country”.
