GENDER EQUALITY: Joins other well-meaning foundations to promote equality between women and men with respect to their treatment, opportunities and economic and social achievements in the workplace and labor organization. It can be achieved when women and men enjoys same rights and opportunities across all sectors of the society. Gender equality is both a human rights principle and a precondition for sustainable people-centered development (adapted from UN women)
RURAL EDUCATIONAL AWARENESS: The Foundation knows that education is an important tool to bringing long-term social positive change. Spreading awareness about education among people is most challenging due to poverty illiteracy, non-availability of quality education and social practices. We address the issues through providing incentive to parents for enrolling their children and establishing school nearby.
ACCESS TO EDUCATION: Education is fundamental to development and growth. The human mind makes possible all developments, from health advances and agricultural innovations to efficient public administration and private sector growth for countries to reap these benefits fully, they need to unleash the potential of human mind. And there is no better tool for doing so than education. The first foundation skill acquired early in childhood makes possible a lifetime of learning. The traditional view of education as starting in primary school takes up the challenge too late. The science of brain development shows that learning needs to be encouraged early and often, both inside and outside of the formal schooling system.
ACCESS TO HEALTHCARE: Is critical to good health, yet rural residents face a variety of access barriers.
