History

On his return to India in May 2005 after graduation, Amitabh Shah visited orphanages, the local Blind People's Association, two slum children schools and poor vagabonds found near the railway stations.

Success mantra

YUVA Unstoppable believes in the principle stated by Mahatma Gandhi – "Be the change you want to see in the world". It says that young people are not useless but they are used less, so it tries to give direction to the aspiring new generation to do something good.
