Awareness and Positive Discrimination for Girls' Education
Our outreach and empowerment initiatives aren't only limited to the distribution of LED lamps to girl-students in economically disadvantaged regions with little to no electricity, we also run sensitizing programs to equip girls with the knowledge of various governmental schemes available for them to use to empower themselves. In Rajasthan, for example, we ran 52 En-Light a Girl Child events including puppet shows and pledge ceremonies, involving the participation of school-going girls from more than 250 villages. We include this Booklet on Girl Child Rights with each of our lamps too in order to reinforce the protections and schemes available to girl children through the state.
