Shanti Sahyog Supply Drive
In March, EmpowerIndiaEdu hosted its first-ever supply drive in Mumbai and New Delhi, India.
Here, individuals were given school supplies and registration for their education in local schools. Consider contacting us to help continue to donate supplies for these underrepresented children in India who don’t have the money to purchase school supplies or other materials in their lives.

Help a child just like the one above receive funds, and supplies for their schooling. The approximate cost for each child’s education is $120. We will make sure to supply them with the other necessities as well.

Project Greenlight
Project green light is an EmpowerIndiaEdu fundraiser aimed to empower children in Uganda to gain access to educational resources. Through our partnership with the Greenlight Foundation, we will be able to change the lives of over 40 children.
Our unique strategy to combat illiteracy
Children: We use a hands-on approach to cultivate learning among those in the prime age to acquire life-long skills. Research suggests that children between 2 and 7 are most adept at learning. That is why we partner with primary schools and use our platform to provide children with learning while giving them the supplies necessary to succeed in an educational environment. By doing so, we can change the lives of thousands of children who had no previous access to education.
Adults: The root of the Illiteracy issue in India stems from the fact that adults in many households have little to no education. This is an issue that persists many households in rural India. EmpowerIndiaEdu will leverage influence and partnerships, to provide adults with classes, and training in order to cultivate an environment of education amongst their family.
