A grassroots non-profit in Telangana

A society where every individual has the opportunity to thrive and lead a dignified life.
Our mission

- To promote health, hygiene, and self-confidence

Dr. Chinmayee Tammareddy
Founder & President
“I want people to imagine what it would be like to grow up without basic support, education, safety, or even a voice. That’s the reality for countless women and children across our country.”
Founded by Dr. Chinmayee Tammareddy, the foundation is committed to empowering women and individuals with disabilities, fostering their development and integrating them into society.
She is a counselling psychologist, which is where our mental health and emotional wellbeing work comes from.
Where our work goes
Girl Education
Skill-based classes, academic sponsorships, and lessons taught by subject experts, so girls stay in school.
Skill Development
Practical training and employability coaching, so what a girl learns in class turns into work she can be paid for.
Career Guidance
Career counselling and personality development sessions for girls deciding what to do after school.
Health & Hygiene
Menstrual health awareness sessions and sanitary napkin distribution. We go back to the same schools every month rather than visiting once.
Disability Support
Education support and inclusive programmes for specially abled children and women, run with their peers rather than in a separate group.
Mental Health & Wellbeing
Emotional wellbeing support and confidence-building, so a girl under strain at home does not fall behind at school.
Women’s Empowerment
Livelihood support, confidence-building, and public recognition for women who hold their families together with very little help.
Community Outreach
Volunteering in slums and government schools, cultural and sports events, and honouring local women and children who set an example.
