OUR STORY
The Seva Project's journey began with a shared passion for sports and a deep desire to make a positive impact on the lives of underprivileged children. Our founders envisioned a world where sports could be a pathway to brighter futures, fostering character and life skills for all children, regardless of circumstances.
We recognized the barriers faced by many families in accessing sports equipment and set out on a mission to level the playing field. Each contribution, whether big or small, fuels our passion to empower young athletes and opening doors to new possibilities.
With the spirit of "Seva" in Sanskrit, meaning selfless service, we strive to create a legacy of empowerment and resilience. Join us in unlocking the true potential of sports and inspiring generations to come. Together, we can nurture dreams and create a future where every child experiences the transformative magic of sports. Thank you for being part of our story and for helping us make a lasting impact.
