The beginning of a journey to uplift lives.
La Forêt Education Charitable Trust was born from a deep desire to uplift lives through education. What started as a passion for teaching soon grew into something deeper, as we saw how many bright minds were held back not by lack of ability, but by lack of opportunity. While working closely with children and communities, we realized that learning alone isn’t enough when hunger, illness, and emotional struggles stand in the way. Inspired by real stories and heartfelt moments, we knew we had to do more. That’s where our journey into uplifting people truly began. Our work is about giving hope.

We believe that education is the most powerful way to break the cycle of poverty. So, we empower underprivileged students by providing free, high-quality education, and resources, ensuring every child gets a fair chance to learn, grow, and build a brighter future.
It's important that you trust us. We are very open and honest about everything we do. We uphold transparency and accountability in every action. You'll see how we use your support and to make real changes. Our goal is to show clear, lasting results.
We know we can do more when we work together. We bring together generous donors, caring volunteers, and helpful partners. When we all work as a team, we create a bigger, more caring community for everyone.
Leadership
Behind La Forêt Education Charitable Trust are people who care deeply. People who believe in lifting others, who lead not with power but with purpose.

Arti Goyal
Arti Goyal, founder of La Forêt French Class, has spent more than 20 years teaching students of different ages and backgrounds. Over the years, she saw that children don’t just need lessons, they need patience, encouragement, and someone who believes in them. Her teaching journey showed her how confidence and consistency can completely change how a child learns. Through the trust, she works to extend that same care and attention to children who need extra academic and emotional support.

Vibha Goyal
Vibha Goyal, founder of La Forêt Education, brings the bridge between structured education and social impact. Her early volunteer work with underprivileged children left a lasting mark on her. She saw bright minds held back only by lack of access and support. That experience shaped her path. Today, she focuses on building learning programs, support systems, and outreach efforts that give children real opportunities to grow and move forward with direction.

Shailendra Goyal
Shailendra Goyal plays a key mentoring and advisory role in the trust. He believes that knowledge becomes valuable only when it is shared and used to uplift others. He supports the trust’s mission through planning, guidance, and community outreach, helping ensure that every effort stays purposeful and accountable. His guidance helps keep the trust practical, transparent, and focused on long-term impact for children and families.
