What is Being human?

Being Human: The Salman Khan Foundation is a registered charitable trust set up by Salman Khan for helping the cause of the underprivileged.

The Salman Khan Foundation has two focus areas: education and healthcare.

In order to increase the reach and corpus of the Foundation, Salman Khan has undertaken initiatives such as Being Human art and Being Human merchandise.
