Sandeep Aggarwal Foundation and KHUSHI Foundation Partner to Support Education of 60 Underprivileged Girls

New Delhi, India – 12th November 2024 – In a landmark collaboration for social impact, the Sandeep Aggarwal Foundation partnered with the KHUSHI Foundation to empower the futures of 60 underprivileged girls. Supporting girls education through these partnerships, the girls also received educational resources, guidance on menstrual healthcare, and free sanitary pad distribution. All these initiatives were aimed at reducing school dropouts due to menstrual challenges.

In India, 2.3 million girls leave school each year due to inadequate menstrual hygiene education. The Sandeep Aggarwal Foundation is determined to change this statistic by ensuring access to both education and health resources.

“Our mission is to break the cycle of school dropouts due to a lack of menstrual hygiene support. By joining forces with the KHUSHI Foundation, we’re providing free education, menstrual health resources, skill-building workshops, and sustainable livelihood opportunities. The impact speaks volumes: 100% school retention, 90% improved menstrual health awareness, and 80% economic independence,” said Upasana Bora, Chairperson of Sandeep Aggarwal Foundation.

Founded by Sandeep Aggarwal—serial entrepreneur, angel investor, and philanthropist—the Sandeep Aggarwal Foundation works toward creating an inclusive India by addressing core societal challenges. Its focus areas include natural resource conservation, education for underprivileged children, empowering women hailing from underprivileged socio-economic backgrounds, and promoting entrepreneurship. KHUSHI Foundation, committed to transforming the lives of underserved communities, partners with organizations like Sandeep Aggarwal Foundation to create sustainable, meaningful change.
