The founding organisation (Galaxy Foundation) has planned three thrilling and challenging fundraising campaigns to raise funds for this noble cause.

    Vikash and Madhurita Jayaswal are the directors of Galaxy Foundation, a non-profit organisation that founded and initiated the journey of Galaxy Gurukul. The Jayaswals are both successful chartered accountants who immigrated to the UK and established a property investment business - Galaxy of Homes. However, they never forgot their humble origins and their dream of providing quality education to the poor children of Kolkata, where Vikash was born and raised by his widowed mother. They registered Galaxy Foundation in the UK as a community interest company and set up Galaxy Gurukul in Madhyamgram, Kolkata.
