Inspiration

Dr A P J Abdul Kalam

Scientist & Former President of India

The RAJ SQUARE CHARITY FOUNDATION was inspired by Dr Abdul Kalam's LEAD INDIA MOVEMENT, a mission-oriented programme for transforming the youth of the country, where Dr Abdul Kalam highlighted ''poverty'' and ''lack of quality education'' as the country's two major problems by designing a 10 point oath to the youngsters.

Dr APJ Abdul Kalam was an Indian Scientist and politician who served as the 11th President of India from 2002 to 2007. He served almost four decades as a scientist and science administrator, mainly at the Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO) and Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) and was known as the "Missile Man of India" for his work on the development of ballistic missile and launch vehicle technology. He is also called as the "People's President" for inspiring young minds to dream and fly.
