Our Aim
-
Women Empowerment
We Believe in Promoting women's sense of self-worth, their ability to determine their own choices, and their right to influence social change for themselves and others and Women's empowerment is really needed in the societies. It's so important for women self-esteem and also for societies. Empowering women is to give women the right. Women can have equal right to participate in education, society, economy and politically.
Gender Sensitization & Education
Gender sensitization is possible with the help of education, It is one basic requirement for the normal development of an individual. Education develops the leadership quality among women by self confidence and self esteem. Social awareness, Political awareness, health awareness can be better understood in the higher level with the help of higher education.
Our aim is to educate and develop a gender consciousness among women. At Ladli we amplify the voices of women and especially women from the marginalised communities.
We at Laadli, Protest for the sexual and reproductive rights of women and Try to encompass efforts to eliminate maternal mortality, to ensure quality sexual and reproductive health services, and to address sexually transmitted infections (STI), cervical cancer, violence against women and girls, and sexual and health needs of adolescents.Menstural Hygiene & Management (MHM)
Menstruation is a naturally occurring physiological phenomenon in adolescent girls and pre-menopausal women. Menstrual Hygiene Management (MHM) is defined as ‘Women and adolescent girls using a clean menstrual management material to absorb or collect blood that can be changed in privacy as often as necessary for the duration of the menstruation period, using soap and water for washing the body as required, and having access to facilities to dispose of used menstrual management materials’. There’s accountablity that 23% of girls drop out of school when they start menstruating.
Our aim is to enable them and empower them. We organize awareness campaigns where women can learn the importance of menstrual hygiene and adopt sustainable menstrual practices, which they can then pass on to their daughters.Stop Child Marriage
Child marriage negatively affects the Indian economy and can lead to an intergenerational cycle of poverty. Girls and boys married as children more likely lack the skills, knowledge and job prospects needed to lift their families out of poverty and contribute to their country's social and economic growth.
We are committed to sensitize and convince the masses about the negative impacts of child marriage through our awareness generation programs. Through our gender sensitization programs, we promote primary and secondary education for girls, because we believe in not just protecting women from these evils but to empower every girl and every woman for the future endeavours and to bring an effective change in the society.-
Preventive Healthcare & Health Support
Preventive care can drastically increase your lifespan because it allows you to catch things early and treat them much easier. Increasing awareness and concern about healthy living will not only help the people to stay healthy and sound but it will also help them to boost their personal growth and well-being.
We support healthcare for generating awareness implementing various Govt. health programs, addressing health and sanitation issues with special focus on women and children in urban slums and rural areas. Through fund raising, we try to help focus on critical health-related issues that need urgent attention. Ensure that HIV infected children and women are tested and are given required counselling.

Dignitaries Testimonials
Having our Mega Events and Activities witnessed by Union Ministers, Celebrities, Diplomats, Head of Government Departments & prominent dignitaries is always highly motivating for us to fuel our passion and it makes our effort worthwhile.
I sincerely appreciate the endless devotion of team Ladli for enhancing the quality of life of socially victimized females. The efforts of the Ladli Foundation present the Vedic Proclamation of preservation of a woman's respect and dignity promptly and realize the dream of 'Beti Bachao Beti Padhao'
I am not here to inaugurate this mega event or to deliver any speech. But I am here to join and support this revolutionary initiative and give honor to this cause. By providing any address no one can create awareness for women's safety to whom we consider "DEVI" If we keep an attitude of respect towards them, then only the crime against women can stop, and this attitude we all should inculcate among ourselves. It is not just a matter of the safety of women. It is all about the safety of humanity. I am thankful to the Ladli Foundation for making me a part of this revolutionary initiative and would congratulate the entire team for organizing this commendable marathon in association with Delhi Police.
Many NGOs are working with our ministry for social welfare, out of which Ladli Foundation Trust is working exceptionally as the prominent NGO among all. I sincerely appreciate the efforts of Mr. Devendra, Founder of Ladli Foundation, for doing extraordinary work for empowering PwD's an uplifting Socially Victimized People.
I commend Mr. Devendra Kumar Gupta for founding the Ladli Foundation Trust and his commitment to crusade and save the uneducated, unprotected girls from exploitation and sexual abuse. Citizens like him are the true heroes!
The thing I like about the initiatives of the Ladli Foundation, it engages both men and women. It is important that we teach our women to be strong and independent. But it is equally important that we teach our boys to respect women. That is why I really liked to be here
This cause is very close to my heart, and Ladli Foundation is doing exemplary work for the safety and empowerment of women in the society
The implementation of the JOSH Initiative in Delhi by Ladli Foundation, had a very profound impact, wherein thousands of youths in different slums were successfully brought on the right path. I wholeheartedly congratulate team Ladli Foundation and Delhi Police for this wonderful initiative. Now this modal need to be replicate at different location.
I appreciate the concept of Sashakt Divyang by Ladli foundation to sensitized corporates and all sectors about government Incentives for employing persons with disabilities The idea of involving MSME will defiantly strengthen the process of empowering PWD’s. The Huge Participation of PwD’s & General People in this initiative is an indication that the awareness about rights of persons with disabilities will be helpful in eliminating discrimination against PwD’s.
In the last few years, crimes against women have decreased in Delhi, which is a positive result. Our joint venture with Ladli Foundation Trust will be a milestone for the cause. Ladli's awareness and sensitization programs can contribute a lot to society and can encourage more and more people to come forward for this cause.
Ladli Foundation truly works for the upliftment of underprivileged youth at grassroots level, during my long-term association with the organization they have implemented number of impactful initiatives for overall development of vulnerable youth population, which is an essential tool in crime prevention.
