Welcome to
IGNITE
a non-profit foundation to support the Alpha Montessori School in New Delhi, India
The Alpha Montessori School
The Alpha Montessori School was founded to provide high quality education to low-income children and provide them the skills to move beyond the rigid limitations of social class. It is located in Mandawali, an impoverished community in East Delhi, India. Without such an education, these children would be condemned to living and working in the same low wage, back-breaking jobs of their parents.
We presently educate children ages 3 to 14 using the Montessori Method, an exceptionally effective system to educate children of this community. The children engage quickly and deeply in their studies and develop citizenship skills at a level rarely seen in any school. In addition, we conduct parent-teacher meetings and provide students annual medical check-ups with health professionals. Our years with this educational work has shown us positive results. There is no other group conducting this kind of work in community.
Our Mission
Bring high quality education, appropriately suited to the needs of the children and their culture, so they can become valued and useful members of society.
Transform the lives of the children and families, of Mandawali through education that teaches clear and creative thinking to intelligent informed choices.
Instill respect for self and others, develop leadership skills, individual responsibility to society.
