IIMPACT reflects the desire to make a positive impact primarily through the IIM linkages of the founding members. We have a single minded focus on working towards educating & changing the lives of young girls in the remotest of rural areas in India.
Getting a girl to school is not just about providing them with a school and a teacher - its often involves changing local customs , values and fighting against prejudices.The girls we have impacted also show true grit as they " push back against old age customs " and take the first step towards independence - by coming to our learning centres.
The vision of IIMPACT is to transform the lives of women, families and entire communities in India by the education and empowerment of the girl child.
*Disclaimer: To protect the identity of the girls - details of the kids have been changed.
At IIMPACT we are scripting many more such amazing stories & we would want you to also get involved. Fund the education of these girls & lets together script more such amazing stories.
IIMPACT is building 10 learning centres in Sheopur, Madhya Pradesh. Each learning centre will accommodate 30 children. These learning centres will in turn impact thousands of children for years to come and is a dire necessity in the area.

An organisation like IIMPACT is so important in India because of the deplorable condition not just of girl child education in India, but due to the sad reality of the girl child itself.

While free education is available to everyone across the country in theory, the statistics tell a whole other story. We realise that there is a growing need to promote girl child education. Something that has been neglected for generations.
IIMPACT provides educational opportunity to girls, from socially and economically disadvantaged communities of India, who traditionally have no access to schooling. Our aim is to break the cycle of illiteracy that girls from such communities are mired in. This is done through local community-based Learning Centres, where they get meaningful and stimulating education up to Year 5 and are guided to their entry in to mainstream education. We are supported by corporations, trusts and individuals who want to make a difference.

Established in 2003, IIMPACT has identified a specific focus, developed a clear strategy and proved the delivery model in terms of social outcomes as well as scalability. Educating the Girl Child has been shown to transform the community.
It’s s concept that allows a large number of funders (like you) to fund an Idea or a cause or event by giving small amounts of money online. Fueladream is a crowdfunding site and platform in India that allows for such a pooling of funds.
You can fund innovations & ideas on FuelADream and be the first to get these products or make them come true. You can also do a good turn by funding charities and causes through crowdfunding. When you fund a charity it’s more like a donation & you get small innovative rewards like a shout-out on a FB page or a thank you email from the beneficiaries.
