has been long associated with Nanhi Kali – Girl Child Education since 1953 when
the late Mr. K.C Mahindra founded The K.C Mahindra Educational Trust (KCMET)
with the objective of promoting literacy and higher learning in the country.
On
the 23rd of January, 2013, Mahindra Trucks and Buses Limited launched a new
initiative at the Indian Institute of Management, Ahmedabad (IIMA) known as
MPOWER – the Management Development Program for Youth Transport Entrepreneurs
for the new and next generation of the transport fraternity. Many young, enthusiastic
and dedicated entrepreneurs belonging to the finest transport companies of
India were chosen for this initiative with an aim at professionalizing the
Indian transport sector in the long run.
In
order to sustain the relationship with the delegates who belong to the top
transport companies of India and who are part of this tie-up, each delegate
will be assigned one Nanhi Kali (girl child) for a period of one year.
There
have been various MPOWER batches in the past who have contributed towards
making a difference for example, MPOWER Batch I consisted of 30 participants
and each delegate contributed towards one Nanhi Kali – Girl Child Education.
Similarly, the second MPOWER Batch was initiated on the 3rd of August, 2013
till the 16th of August, 2013. This batch comprised of 35 young entrepreneurs
who were assigned one Nanhi Kali to a delegate for one year.
Each
delegate contributed a sum of Rs. 2400 towards this initiative. A total sum of
Rs. 84,000 would be given to Nanhi Kali towards the education of the Girl child
from the 1st to the 5th standard.
With each step forward, the MPOWER Initiative has the potential to make a significant difference in the lives of individuals and communities. By empowering people with the necessary resources, knowledge, and support, it can enable them to overcome barriers and achieve their full potential.What is gmail archiving
