Taking a new step every year
Since the inception SledgeHammer Foundation has been working towards the betterment and progress of the society. Its parent company being Faridabad-based, in the Delhi NCR region, the foundation works primarily in this region.
We started as a small group with minor projects in 2015, but I am glad to share that by the end of 2018 we have expanded to six new projects and the significant number of beneficiaries. Education, life skills, remedial learning, vocational training, women empowerment, and sports are our main causes.
I believe that educated youth can only bring stability in society. We, therefore, work with underprivileged girls and provide them holistic education as well as life skills to tackle the atrocities of life if any. Our sports program aims at creating a mental and physical balance. We have framed our project under the guidelines of ‘Hum Fit Toh India Fit’ mission by the Government of India.
It gives me immense pleasure to share that we now have a state-of-the-art cricket academy, which identifies and trains talented young children across all socio-economic background. We have an individual quota for children falling in the underprivileged category; coaching and training are free of cost for them. We encourage girls to be part of our academy, and coaching is a hundred percent free for them.
It is also endearing to see that young girls who undergo vocational training of stitching and beautician courses are now earning their living and also helping their families financially.
I am grateful to our sponsors, supporters, and well wishers for making our programmes run smoothly. Also, our employees leave no stone unturned to make a mark. Disha Shrivastava, Head-CSR at SledgeHammer, has done several fundraising as well as awareness activities for the foundation; you will read all about it in detail in the report.
I am incredibly hopeful that we will continue to work for the betterment of the society and let the SledgeHammer Foundation become the paradigm of an educated and stable society.
With your continued support, we will.
Thank you.
