Our Mission
Our Mission is to promote gender equality and support the education of girls to create a more just and equitable society.
What we do
Funding
Now we fund the higher education (undergraduate college) of motivated and hard working girls whose families lack the resources to support them. MDIP collects the money through crowd-funding, our ambassadors, and fundraisers and sends it directly to the girls’ schools/colleges through our partner, an NGO Shikshadaan, based out of Gurgaon. We keep the donors updated on the girls’ progress on our Facebook page through videos and exam results so that they know how their money is being put to use. We have partnered with two universities, Janki Devi Memorial College and Holy Family Nursing College to support students.
Mentoring
With the help of our partner Growing Leadership of Women (GLOW), we pair each student with a mentor. The mentors are educated women who volunteer their time to be a resource for our MDIP daughters and guide them in both professional and personal matters. Our mentors also host life skill sessions on topics such as Communication or Goal Setting to help our MDIP daughters prepare themselves for life after college.

Awareness
We visit lower socioeconomic areas in various cities, interact with families and speak to them about gender equality and importance of educating girls. We take their photographs and write their stories. Posting these on our Facebook page creates awareness for the cause and enables crowd funding. The polaroids act as a reminder to cherish and value their daughters.
In 2016, we partnered with BitGiving ( a crowdfunding platform) and Nanhi Kali ( a n NGO that supports girls education) to raise more than INR 3.0 lakhs through a crowd-funding campaign which helped send 108 girls to primary school for a year.
Exhibitions
The My Daughter is Precious Exhibitions aim to create awareness about the cause and attract potential supporters and donors.
