developmental needs. Using sports (chiefly football) and the outdoors as a medium, and by providing
positive role models, children are made aware of their own abilities and of the world around them. This

In 1997, The Foundation launched a unique Leaders of Tomorrow Project. Under this project a one year
leadership course is conducted for slum children in schools in Mumbai. The project exposes selected IX
standard students from the underprivileged sections of our society to this specially designed programme so
that they occupy leadership positions in different professions. These children have a low self-esteem
because of the socio economic background they come from. The idea is to enhance their self esteem and
build confidence in them by providing them training in communication skills, social values, public speaking,
goal setting, time management, etc. which they would not learn in a crowded classroom or from text-books.
This training equips them with necessary attitudes and skills which will help them cope with challenges and Dr.P.N.Singh
