For every educated girl, you empower a future mother to educate both her daughters and sons.

Mansi’s village

Mansi is 12 years old, she is currently in 6th Grade. Her mother, Champa is a home maker and her father Umesh is a farmer. She lives in a small agricultural village called Shravasti in Uttar Pradesh.

She shows significant improvement in digital literacy (0% to 100%) and life skills (17% to 83%), but no change in financial literacy, where she has been struggling. Mansi’s school attendance is high (93-100%).

With about 93% active participation in sports, especially in weekly multi-sports classes. She mastered fundamentals in sports, participates in community events, and has been selected for district and national level competitions. Participation varies across activities, with some activities requiring encouragement and exploration.

Through Project Nanhi Kali, she receives her required school supplies for the year, alongside life skill education such as digital literacy, financial literacy, critical thinking and communication, and an after school sports program, ultimately preparing these girls for a seamless transition from the classroom to higher education and the workplace.

She is also provided with a drawstring bag, clothing, socks, and shoes. Additionally, she is provided with an annual supply of feminine hygiene products, which significantly supports her confidence and dignity in being a girl.

By supplying her with essential school provisions, fostering a positive environment to education and sports, she is provided with the daily necessities she requires to participate fully in her education, this greatly helps encourage parents to allow their daughters to complete high school having removed the burden of financial responsibility. In turn it helps prevent child marriage, illiteracy and child labour.
