Project Saethu Foundation was initiated in 2010 by the Dr. Eshwar Singh with the aim of providing primary education to underprivileged girl children in India.
Dr. Eshwar Singh, the current chairman of Taxonomics Solutions, founded Project Saethu Foundation. with a strong belief that educated women would not only contribute to the economy but also issues of population and social evils like the dowry system and child marriage would reduce as more women are educated.
Apart from the objective of impacting the nation's development through education of the girl child, Anand Mahindra also wanted to encourage Indians to ’give back’ in a focused manner. Hence Project Nanhi Kali was designed as a sponsorship support programme which allows individuals to participate and support the education of a girl child in India.
