The COVID-19 pandemic has disrupted learning for over 1.5 billion children globally, with marginalized communities facing heightened risks. Ladli Foundation, in collaboration with BYJU’s e-learning app, aims to address the digital divide by providing free access to secondary education for one lakh marginalized students in India. Your contribution will empower vulnerable families, especially those with three or more children, ensuring that each tablet benefits the entire family.

The intersectionality of poverty, gender, ethnicity, age, and disability further compounds the issue, leading to discrimination and exclusion from online education.
Ladli Foundation's project focuses on enabling digital education for marginalized students through refurbished devices loaded with e-learning content and a three-year premium subscription to BYJU’s. Your donation will support the following initiatives:
