At Dhriti Foundation, we believe that education is the foundation for a brighter, more equitable future. Established in 2012, our mission is to empower girls and women through access to quality education, skills training, and leadership development.
We work tirelessly in underserved communities to break down the barriers that prevent girls from attending school and women from realizing their full potential. From providing scholarships and school supplies to conducting workshops on digital literacy, entrepreneurship, and rights awareness, we are committed to creating lasting change.
Our approach is holistic and community-driven. We collaborate with local leaders, schools, families, and other organizations to foster an environment where girls and women are respected, supported, and celebrated. Through mentorship programs, advocacy campaigns, and livelihood initiatives, we aim to uplift not just individuals, but entire communities.

President, Dhriti Foundation
At Dhriti, we believe in the power of opportunity, compassion, and collective action. Our journey began with a simple yet powerful mission: to create a world where every child has access to quality education, every woman has the tools to build an empowered life, and every community can live with dignity, health, and harmony with the environment.
Over the years, our work has grown across sectors—from child development and women’s empowerment to healthcare and environmental sustainability. Every initiative, whether it’s providing elementary education to the children, skill development to women, or leading awareness campaigns for health and clean living, is fueled by the belief that change is possible when we act together.
Our impact is made possible because of dedicated team members, volunteers, partners, and supporters like you. We are grateful for your continued trust and commitment. As we move forward, we remain steadfast in our vision to create inclusive growth and opportunities for all.
Let us continue to stand together—because together, we can make a difference that lasts
