Yuva Unstoppable's Founder & Viksit Bharat Ambassador Amitabh Shah Honored With Global Guardians Of Humanity Award 2025-26

Mount Abu: In a resounding acknowledgment of his relentless dedication to social change, Amitabh Shah, Founder and Chief Inspiration Officer of Yuva Unstoppable, has been conferred the prestigious Global Guardians of Humanity Award 2025-26 at Mount Abu.

The honor was presented by two inspiring public figures: graceful Sister Jayanti, the Additional Administrative Head of Brahma Kumaris, and visionary Shri Arjun Ram Meghwal, the Honorable Union Law Minister of India, during a significant ceremony celebrating profound service to mankind.

Sister Jayanti, speaking with her characteristic grace and wisdom, reflected on the deeper essence of leadership, saying that “true greatness lies in the ability to see goodness in everyone and to nurture it for the collective upliftment of society.”

The exemplary leader Shri Arjun Ram Meghwal lauded Amitabh Shah’s humanitarian vision and commended Yuva Unstoppable’s transformative work across India. Drawing from Dr. A.P.J. Abdul Kalam’s PURA (Providing Urban Amenities to Rural Areas) mission, he emphasized the importance of empowering local communities through education, technology, and sustainable infrastructure — values deeply embedded in Brahmakumaris and Yuva Unstoppable’s initiatives.

With characteristic humility, Mr. Shah dedicated the award not to himself, but to the collective efforts that power the movement.“This recognition truly belongs to Yuva Unstoppable’s children, corporate partners, farmers, mothers, and the Yuva Unstoppable team - all of whom have turned compassion into measurable change across 8,000+ schools and 8 million+ beneficiaries,” Shah stated. He expressed his heartfelt gratitude to the Brahma Kumaris and the honorable minister for inspiring the youth to blend inner values with outer action.

The Global Guardians of Humanity Award serves as a powerful testament to Yuva Unstoppable’s expansive impact, which includes transforming government schools with improved infrastructure, sanitation, and digital learning, creating a ripple effect of empowerment across India.
