“Aarya: The Amur Leopard – Our Mascot of Strength, Resilience, and Youth Empowerment at the Youth of India Foundation.”

Our Mascot, the Amur Leopard, primarily found in Northern China and Southeast Russia, symbolizes resilience and survival against the odds. Its critically endangered status on the IUCN list emphasizes the need for environmental preservation and conservation, which perfectly aligns with our mission. At the Youth of India Foundation, we are committed to empowering young people with knowledge, enhancing employability, and educating them to drive India toward a sustainable future by 2047. Aarya, known for its grace and hunting prowess, reflects the potential and energy of Indian youth, serving as an evergreen inspiration for positive change across the globe. We are truly grateful to have Aarya, the Amur Leopard, as part of the Youth of India Foundation family!

Every young person has their own unique dreams and talents just like how unique our Aarya is. The Youth of India Foundation celebrates this uniqueness, encouraging every youth to stand out and make a mark on the world. It is also known that Amur Leopard territory can be as large as almost 120 square miles, that’s around 75,000 acres or even more than 55,000 football fields and are protective for their space just as the Youth of India are guardians of their dreams and ambitions, looking to create an impact in their communities. Its survival against such odds is a testament to its unmatched strength, similar to how young people frequently experience many challenges that they must have to deal with; their spirit remains unwavering and continues to face through all of their difficulties.
