Sri Sathya Sai Loka Seva Gurukulam (SSSLSG) is a leading group of educational institutions in India that provides high-quality, values-based, holistic education totally free of cost to needy children from destitute backgrounds. Founded on the core belief that the best use of education is the selfless service of society, its vision is to create strong individuals with brilliant intellects, compassionate hearts and competent hands. Spearheaded by the leadership of Sadguru Sri Madhusudan Sai, these institutions are typically located in deep interior rural areas where many of the students are first-generation learners. Today, there are 26 such institutions across 21 districts of Karnataka, besides one each in Telangana and Tamil Nadu, from grades 6 to 12 which follow the National Institute of Open Schooling (NIOS) curriculum. Free online classes are also provided to not just the students of our institutions but also for the benefit of students studying outside of our institutions.
