Abiding by the supreme duty of a human being to help the denizens of darkness emerge out to the bright shimmering sun, Literacy Mission was established in the winters of 2004. The founders of Literacy Mission were students of NITH Mr. Amit Sharma, Mr. Aseem Kapoor, Mr. Ashish Chaudhary and some other fellow mates, who were distressed at seeing the pitiable conditions of the kids who roamed in the campus and fantasized about a life worth living. Literacy Mission started with the vision of adorning the lives of kids residing in the nearby slums with a garland of education so that their childhood would remain as precious as that of other children.

These kids come from families labouring at construction sites of which most are immigrants from different states and some from neighbouring countries as well foraging for livelihood. Their quality of life is so impoverish that they couldn't even provide basic necessities for the growth of their children. Consequently, the kids are deprived of education as well as an apt environment to nourish. Literacy Mission endeavours to facilitate these kids with anything and everything which endows them to accomplish success in the field of education so as to make them better citizens of India. Efforts are being made to provide every opportunity to raise them intellectually and enrich their lives.

Literacy Mission has always tried to add its bit to the life of kids and shall continue in its efforts. Embracing the thought that,

"Every child must know that he is a miracle, that since the beginning of the world there hasn't been, and until the end of the world there will not be, another child like him"
