What's this Blog about?

Welcome to all those who care about changing India via grass-roots initiatives that empower common people to shape a brighter future for themselves.

IIMPACT is an initiative promoted by alumni of the Indian Institute of Management, Ahmedabad and we seek support from thoughtful people around the world who may share in our goals.

Our Mission
To mobilize and motivate non school going girls, between the ages of 6 and 14, from economically and socially backward rural areas of India, and put them firmly on the track of literacy through quality primary education.

Our Objectives

  • Increase access and encourage enrolment to basic primary education, through community mobilization, for all girl children not in school.
  • Provide high quality relevant education through IIMPACT learning centres।
  • Encourage and enable each girl to become an independent thinker and self learner।
  • Make learning joyful.
  • Help transform the community.
In this blog, we will share our progress with you and ask you to contribute your own ideas and efforts to make our journey more fruitful।

We do hope you will join us!
