Education, sports and awareness for a better Khitoli.
Started as Kalam Classes on Dr. APJ Abdul Kalam’s birthday in 2016, Kalam Foundation works for education, humanity, nature and women empowerment — with free coaching for needy students, sports for all, and drives for a cleaner, safer, digitally aware village.
From a small classroom to a village movement
On 15 October 2016, three young graduates from Khitoli started Kalam Classes near the village post office to help local students study for school and competitive exams. In 2020 it grew into Kalam Foundation — and today more than 100 volunteers carry the work forward.
