Akarsh is creating opportunities for young people to become 'Impact makers'
Akarsh started SPARK when he was 17, to utilize the power of social media as a force of social good to activate young people as ‘Impact makers.’ Through his organic micro-influencer outreach strategy, Akarsh and his co-founder have inspired more than 400 students with no prior volunteering experience and have impacted the lives of more than 5,000 first-generation school-goers in Bangalore. SPARK now has several youth-led projects that focus on academic mentorship at after-school-centres and residential institutions for destitute children.
