Who We Are
Project Nanhi Kali was set up in 1996 to provide quality education to underprivileged girls in India. Jointly managed by K.C. Mahindra Education Trust and Naandi Foundation, the Project has transformed the lives of over 500,000 girls across 14 states. The Project provides girls with comprehensive support including daily afterschool academic support through Academic Support Centres, an annual school supplies kit and feminine hygiene material, enabling girls to attend school with dignity. The girls are provided access to a personalized, adaptive learning software pre-loaded on digital tablets. This AI powered software matches instructions to the learning level of each girl, enabling her to learn with understanding and thereby, improve her learning outcomes. Further a professionally designed sports curriculum has been integrated into the intervention to promote holistic development. The project’s on-ground operations are managed by an all-woman team of over 7,000 Community Associates, who are locally recruited and trained to become learning facilitators and mentors to the girls. They also engage with parents and community stakeholders to create conducive, girl-friendly ecosystems. Project Nanhi Kali currently supports over 185,000 girls through more than 7,000 Centres, in over 4,000 government schools across 9 states in India.
