From Simple Acts to Social Change | Ayush Jain | TEDxMoulsari Avenue
At just 17, Aayush Jain planted the seed of what would grow into Teens of God, a youth-driven NGO that’s transforming lives in communities across Gurugram. What began as eight teenagers with a shared dream of “doing something for society” has evolved into a powerful movement impacting thousands — from education programs for underprivileged children to sanitary health drives, road safety awareness, and animal welfare initiatives. In this talk, Aayush shares how small, consistent efforts — collecting ₹200 a month, teaching kids in a park after school, and building trust in the community — turned into a platform of hope and action. Through his story, he uncovers the hidden logic of the ordinary: that when passion meets persistence, even the simplest actions can ripple into extraordinary change. His journey is a testament to the power of youth, the strength of community, and the belief that every effort truly counts. Aayush Jain, the Founder and President of Teens of God NGO, is a young 24 years old ardent social worker who started his journey in 8th Grade and has worked with numerous reputable NGOs since he was in his eighth grade at Ryan International School Gurugram and a TEDx Speaker amongst other eminent personalities.He is a recipient of many National Awards for social work.
