The Man Behind the Vision
The Man,
The Guiding Light
UBS Charitable Foundation came to life in the loving memory of the devoted humanitarian Shri Utkarsh B Shah, fondly called UBS. A man on a mission to serve the society, he poured his heart working silently, selflessly and tirelessly in areas of education, socio-religious activities and welfare of senior citizens.
This Foundation stands as a beacon of his kindness and generosity and shall continue to spread the light with sincere work and efforts in uplifting the society.

CK Bal Mandir, NK Prathmik Shala
CK Bal Mandir and NK Prathmik Shala are esteemed institutions under the Vasan Sheri Trust in Saraspur.
CK Bal Mandir and NK Prathmik Shala began their journey way before, but in 1997, Mr. Utkarsh Bhikhoobhai Shah started taking care of both institutions with a cohort of 600+ students. From these modest beginnings, we have grown into a vibrant educational institution that serves 1200 students today, offering education up to the 8th standard for both boys and girls.

पंख Day Care Centre, nurtured by the UBS Charitable Foundation, stands as a beacon of hope and care for those who take care of us and our homes. It is a centre for our helpers’ children, so that while they make our lives easier, their children are also taken care.
