ITTICan started through a casual conversation over a coffee meeting with friends in 2009. As an entrepreneur’s daughter, Srilakshmi wanted to start a business to improve the quality of life of school going children. Many kids wonder, “have I done the right thing by choosing the field of study?”, “Do I belong here?”, “Is this what I want to do?”! This idea of helping children understand the different career paths they can choose by exposing them to different educational streams became a reality through ITTICan.

We went about conducting workshops in different schools through fun-filled interactive group activities and quizzes. ITTICan after a few years of operations, got re-established as a non-profit, 501c (3) organization for children in need of support (for education, health or social issues) across the globe. We are very excited to have this platform to make an impact on a larger scale without any profit motive. The organization’s goals (advancing human potential and promoting equality) are dedicated to improve the quality of many children’s lives through education and assistance to children/organizations for the betterment of the community.

Our Mission

Our mission is to improve the quality of life for children in need regardless of geographical, political or religious boundaries.

ITTICan has helped 100 children in our school with school supplies, uniforms, and transportation facilities, helping them turn their dreams into a reality!
