We're VIDYA. Here's What We Do.
An excommunicated widow who is now a successful business owner.
A dropout youth who became a high scorer and a proud graduate.
A 9-year old girl who persuaded her abusive, alcoholic father to go into rehab.
A girl in our eighth grade class who dreams of going back to her home town and changing it from the ground up. A 10th standard girl who scored a perfect 10.0 CGPA.
VIDYA makes stories like this happen. We're a 34-year old NGO based in India that believes in social change through empowering the most vulnerable members of underprivileged communities: the children, youth and women.
We create peerless programs with our approach of holistic, practical education and vocational training.
Join us, donate or just spread the word.
Educate. Empower. Transform.
