About Utkarsh - The Awakening
UTA is a non-profit startup organization with the vision that every underprivileged individual should have access to a good life to live, through education, health care and livelihood.
UTA came in to being in May 2010 by Mrs. Nilima Jadhav. The organization was setup with the objective of promoting Community Development through Education, Health Awareness and Livelihood for the underprivileged.
Our main target is to provide Education; Skill based Training, Capacity Building, Health services and Livelihood and to the less privileged section, enabling them to be self dependent thus creating a social impact.
