Shadhika Project

Shadhika is a 501c3 organization devoted to addressing gender inequality in India by investing in the education, empowerment and economic self-sufficiency of at-risk girls. Shadhika carries out its mission by:

Pooling resources among donors in the US who are interested in supporting the work of Indian-led NGO’s to reduce gender inequality through the education, empowerment, and economic self-sufficiency of girls.
Providing oversight and building the capacity of grantees through technical assistance to ensure accountability and to help them increase their impact
Acting in coalition with other like-minded non-profits in India and globally to raise our collective voice to eliminate gender inequality and empower girls

Using this approach, for over 20 years Shadhika has provided the opportunity for thousands of girls to realize their aspirations for a better life
