Overview

Our Women Empowerment initiatives in Vikhroli are dedicated to promoting the social, economic, and political empowerment of women, enabling them to realize their full potential, exercise their rights, and participate actively in decision-making processes. Through a holistic approach that addresses systemic barriers and empowers women across various domains, we aim to create a more equitable and inclusive society where women have equal opportunities to thrive and contribute to sustainable development.

Our Reach

Our Women Empowerment initiatives extend across Vikhroli, reaching women from diverse backgrounds, including urban, peri-urban, and rural areas. We collaborate with local women's groups, community organizations, educational institutions, government agencies, and other stakeholders to ensure that our programs are accessible and responsive to the needs of women in different contexts. Through strategic partnerships and community engagement, we strive to reach marginalized and underserved women, including those from low-income households, indigenous communities, and minority groups.
