Co-Founder’s Message

Udaan is a transformative initiative dedicated to empowering young girls from disadvantaged backgrounds. Our journey began in December 2016, sparked by the story of Swathi, a bright 14-year-old whose dreams were threatened by an impending marriage. We could not stand by and let this happen, so we established Udaan to provide girls like Swathi with the opportunity to complete their education and pursue their aspirations.

Our mission is clear: education is the key to breaking the cycle of poverty. Udaan offers comprehensive support, covering tuition for up to seven years and facilitating job opportunities aligned with the girls’ interests. We aim to cultivate self-sufficiency and empowerment among these young women.

Beyond financial assistance, our dedicated team at NetElixir’s Hyderabad office runs programs that teach essential skills, from English communication to computer programming. We equip these girls with the tools they need to succeed in life.

When we launched Udaan, we envisioned that Swathi’s achievements would inspire others in her community. Today, that vision is becoming a reality. However, our work is far from complete. We invite individuals and organizations who share our belief in the power of education to join us in this mission. Together, we can create lasting change and help more girls like Swathi realize their dreams.
