We began as a Saturday study circle for twenty-three girls in Janakpur whose families could not afford tuition. When three of them were about to be married before finishing Class 10, the founding members sat with their parents, the ward chair and the school — and all three went on to sit their SEE. That conversation, repeated thousands of times, is the heart of our work.
Today we work in eight districts of Madhesh with a team of 74, most of them women from the communities they serve. Our accounts are audited every year and published in full.
A Madhesh where every girl learns, every woman is safe and heard, and no daughter is valued less than a son.
To work alongside women’s groups, families and local governments on education, protection, health and livelihoods — with plans women help write and budgets they can see.
Dignity before charity, girls’ voices in every decision, inclusion of Dalit, Muslim and marginalised families, and complete transparency in every rupee.
A nine-member Executive Committee elected by the General Assembly every three years sets policy; at least seven seats are held by women. Day-to-day management sits with the Executive Director, and every programme has a community-elected women’s committee that holds the implementation budget.
