Empowering Communities

Our Active Projects

At the Anita Mendiratta Foundation, we’re passionate about getting children back on the path to learning and growth, no matter what challenges they face. We believe that education is the key to unlocking a brighter future, and we’re dedicated to ensuring that every child has the opportunity to return to the classroom, regain a sense of normalcy, and thrive.

Through our carefully chosen initiatives, we’re not just rebuilding schools and buying uniforms—we’re rebuilding hope, dreams, and the possibilities that come with education. Here’s a look at how we’re making a difference, one project at a time.

Education for All

We believe every child deserves the chance to learn, grow, and build a brighter future through education.

Vocational Training

Empowering individuals with skills for life, vocational training programs open doors to stronger futures.

Shiva Shankar Basic School

Rebuilding Earthquake Destroyed School in Nepal

In response to the devastating earthquake in November 2023, we have partnered with Street Child to rebuild educational facilities in Nepal. We are funding a Transitional Learning Centre and WASH facility at the Shiva Shankar Basic School, ensuring 500 children can continue their education in a safe environment.

APT Social Service Society

Support for Orphaned and Vulnerable Children

In Andhra Pradesh, India, we support the APT Social Service Society, which provides a safe home and education for orphaned children. Our grant covers school fees, uniforms, books, and transportation for 60+ children, ensuring they have the resources they need to succeed.

Empower-HER Sewing Program

Skills Education for Young Girls and Women

Our Empower-HER Sewing Training Programme in Andhra Pradesh equips marginalised women with vocational skills in sewing. Since 2016, our partner Adventure Aid has trained over 100 women, helping them gain financial independence and support their families. Together, we plan on reaching many more, thanks to the generous support of IHCL Hotels.
