Ekal Vidyalaya Foundation (transl. Singularity School Foundation; abbr. EVF) is the principal organisation of the Ekal Abhiyan project, a one teacher school initiative in India. The foundation operates under the umbrella organisation of Ekal Abhiyan Trust and has a number of associated organisations called the Friends of Tribals Society (FTS), Shree Hari Satsang Samiti (SHSS), Arogya Foundation of India (AFI), Grammotham Foundation (GF) and Ekal Sansthan (ES).[1] EVF is actively involved in fund-raising activities in several countries outside India, most notably the United States,[2] and is associated with the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh.[3][4] The Ekal Vidyalaya schools were assisted by the NDA Government from 1999–2000 onwards.[5][3][6]
