WHY:

Girls from underprivileged communities in India are deprived of quality education. A significant number of them are not enrolled in school and those who are, are expected to fulfill gender-specific roles and responsibilities due to which they often have to miss school. Several girls are not allowed to attend school after attaining puberty. These existential experiences, coupled with the lack of effective parental support in nurturing a girl child’s education, have grossly undermined the standard of female education in Rajasthan. Post-COVID girls' drop-out ratio has increased. Hence we are focusing to word towards Promoting Gender Equality and Quality Education through our programs.
