About RTI
Round Table India is an organization of non-political and non-sectarian young men which strives to promote Service Through Fellowship. It is through the fellowship of endearing young men that this organization has served the community for the last 50 years with its presence across 75 cities and towns in India.
It decided to focus all its energy through its established network to build infrastructure to create and refurbish primary schools by establishing processes, systems and providing educational tools in the hands of young aspiring India. Thus in 1996 our long-term project “Freedom Through Education” was born. Round Table India has built almost One Classroom A Day for in the last 10 years.
Round Table India prides itself to be a Zero Overhead Organization. It ensures that every rupee donated/raised goes for Freedom through Education projects, while the administration costs are met with internal funding from members. This uniquely positions RTI differently from other service organizations, since it creates 100% value to its stakeholder.
