Founders

Mr. Anil Kumar hails from Karimnagar District (Now Jagityal District). He could not complete his studies due to difficult circumstances in his family. He could study till the seventh standard only. Then after learning screen printing, he started working as a screen printer. Some of his clients included Kamineni Hospitals in L.B.Nagar, Hyderabad.

Once when he was delivering a visiting cards order to one of his clients – a lawyer- he saw a poor student who had come to his client for a donation of a small amount of Rs.190, as he had lost one year of education, as he was not having the required fees. The client asked Mr. Anil Kumar if he can donate that amount. Mr.Anil Kumar donated the amount, and he got an idea that if he can raise this small amount for other students, in need he can help many students to complete their students. Thus after helping many students, Mr.Anil Kumar started a Trust called Pragathi Jagruthi Foundation on 12th October 2018.

Currently, in 2018, Pragathi Jagruthi Foundation is actively supporting many Poor Children, Women, and Community Members. Mr. Anil Kumar, with his innovative ideas and resourcefulness, is continuously planning innovative programs to help different members of society.

Mrs. Aruna who also hails from the Karimnagar district married Mr. Anil Kumar on the year 26 November 1987. Though she could not get any education, during her childhood, Mrs. Aruna is actively involved with Pragathi Jagruthi Foundation and helped many children complete their education. She is a Trustee of the Pragathi Jagruthi Foundation and is actively involved in all the projects of the Pragathi Jagruthi Foundation.
