Beyond the Classroom: How We’re Building Futures, Not Just Skills
At the Maninder Foundation, we’ve always believed that true empowerment goes beyond textbooks, certificates, or even classroom training. It’s about building a mindset, instilling confidence, and helping girls see their own potential especially when no one else ever told them they had any.
Every girl who joins our foundation carries with her a story some marked by economic hardship, others by social restrictions, and many by self doubt. But the moment she steps into our learning space, the narrative begins to change.
Our mission started in 2022 with a simple but bold vision: to provide free education and skills training in digital marketing to girls who wouldn’t otherwise have access. But very quickly, we realized that what we were doing wasn’t just training we were transforming lives.
A Holistic Approach to Learning
While our core curriculum focuses on high demand skills like SEO, social media marketing, content creation, and analytics, our approach is deeply holistic. We integrate life skills, confidence building workshops, mentorship sessions, and opportunities for real world experience through internships and projects.
One of our learners, Ayesha Malik, came in unsure of her digital skills and now works as a Social Media Manager at a top Indian fashion brand. Her story is one of many, and it's proof that when girls are given tools, guidance, and belief, they go far beyond expectations.
We’re now working to expand our programs into rural areas using mobile learning labs and digital-first content delivery. With partnerships and community support, our goal is to reach 1,000 girls annually by 2026.
At the heart of all this is a simple truth: When you educate a girl, you empower a generation.
“We don’t just teach girls how to work online we help them believe they belong there.” – Founder, Maninder Foundation
