84 million children in India don’t receive an education, perpetuating a multi-generational cycle of poverty, hunger and suffering.
Yellow Rooms are classrooms established in the heart of impoverished communities. Yellow Rooms uplift children mentally, emotionally and spiritually and help end generational cycles of poverty, abuse, and suffering.
Welcome to a Yellow Room!
about The project
Yellow Rooms are classrooms that serve as a safe space for kids in the heart of impoverished communities. They provide education and help children develop intellectually, emotionally, and physically. They restore dignity and hope for families trapped in cycles of poverty and addiction. Sarthak uses a `whole child` model to nurture safe, joyful, hopeful kids and families.

FAQ
To Sarthak Foundation, through Dollar Donation Club Fund, our donor-advised fund.
Not for individual members. Your whole gift goes to Sarthak Foundation. Card companies charge a processing fee on every payment, so it’s added at checkout instead of coming out of your gift. That’s the banks, not us, and we don’t keep a cent of it. Tipping DDC is optional. Brand members and gifts of $500 or more include a 10% fee that keeps the club running.
You betcha. Your gift goes into Dollar Donation Club Fund, a donor-advised fund within Legacy Global, a 501(c)(3).
Yes, anytime. Open the Subscriptions tab on your profile and tap Manage. For a company plan, email help@dollardonationclub.com.
