The entire society benefits when we work towards the upliftment of women. But regrettably, in a country like India, women often do not have access even to their basic rights—such as health, education, employment, and most importantly, a respectable status in society. Women constitute nearly 50% of the world’s population, and it is disheartening to know that many remain unemployed, which in turn affects the economic progress of our nation.

Women play a vital role and are considered the backbone of Indian society—this is why women’s empowerment is not just necessary, but essential. At Ananya Foundation, we have launched several women empowerment programs in collaboration with the Social Service Center. We teach women important life and vocational skills such as sewing, handicrafts, and small-scale entrepreneurship to help them achieve financial independence. We also organize sanitary pad donation drives to promote menstrual hygiene and dignity. In addition, we hold awareness sessions and hands-on workshops that equip them with the tools and confidence needed to lead empowered, self-reliant lives.
