Challenges
Gender Inequality: Deep-rooted patriarchy and cultural norms continue to oppress women, leading to issues such as gender-based violence, limited access to education, and economic disempowerment.
Child Marriage: Despite legal prohibitions, child marriage remains prevalent in many regions, depriving young girls of their childhood, education, and future prospects.
Healthcare Access: Marginalized communities often lack access to basic healthcare services, resulting in high maternal and infant mortality rates, malnutrition, and the spread of preventable diseases.
Educational Barriers: Millions of children, especially girls, are denied the opportunity to receive an education due to poverty, discrimination, and inadequate infrastructure, perpetuating cycles of poverty.
Substance Abuse and Crime: In underserved areas, particularly among young boys, the lack of opportunities and positive role models often leads to substance abuse and involvement in criminal activities.
Social Victimization: Vulnerable individuals, especially women and persons with disabilities, are frequently subjected to exploitation, trafficking, and other forms of social victimization, further marginalizing them from mainstream society.
Impact of COVID-19: The pandemic exacerbated these existing challenges, disrupting education, healthcare, and economic stability for the most vulnerable, making the need for targeted interventions even more urgent.
Solutions
Shagun Mass Wedding Initiative: This program helps women from marginalized communities by covering their marriage expenses, providing them with a sense of dignity and security.
Project JOSH: Focused on rescuing young boys from the cycle of substance abuse and crime, this initiative engages them in sports, dance, yoga, and fitness activities to promote a healthy, drug-free lifestyle.
Pathanshala and E-Pathanshala: These educational initiatives aim to bridge the gap in educational access by offering free and digital education to children in impoverished slums, thereby helping them break the cycle of poverty.
Healthcare Initiatives: The foundation runs health camps, vaccination drives, and awareness programs to improve the health outcomes of marginalized communities, particularly focusing on maternal and child health.
Social Empowerment Projects: In underserved areas, particularly among young boys, the lack of opportunities and positive role models often leads to substance abuse and involvement in criminal activities.
