Aambra Foundation is an Indian Non Govt development organization actively engaged in women empowerment, education, advocacy, knowledge building and employable skill building since 2012. Our scope of work also includes promotion of Indian art, craft, and culture. By organising well researched seminars, fairs, festivals and workshops, AF has impacted thousands of men, women and youth. It has skill trained over a thousand women for employability and entrepreneurship in Delhi-NCR. We have main streamed 52 children in central Delhi in Govt and Private schools in the year 2018-19. The above programmes were funded by individual donations, sponsorships from PSUs, corporates, Govts, ministries and other institutional partners. In the year 2020, with successive lock downs, physical distancing and anxiety about the future, Covid-19 exacerbated mental health issues for various groups. The most neglected and vulnerable populations being adolescent girls and women. AF thus launched a Toll-Free Counselling Helpline to combat the emotional distress. Currently, AF is working with the DWCD, Govt. of NCT of Delhi to establish a Wellness cum Recreational Centre at Nirmal Chhaya complex for the long-stay care home girls and with SSK, Sashakta Paramedics Training program to generate livelihoods for economically empowering and uplifting girls and women residing in urban slums. At AF we are looking for private sector and institutional partners. Our women empowerment programs include capacity building of women in functional and financial literacy, social protection, vocational skills, and entrepreneurship development. This will strengthen women's work motivation and employability skills, starting or scaling-up their own micro enterprises and income generating activities, especially contributing towards achieving SDG-3 andSDG-5.
