Ujjivan firmly believes that education is the most effective tool for achieving sustainable societal transformation. The bank acknowledges the significant disparity in access to equal educational opportunities among disadvantaged segments of society. Through the flagship initiative, Chote Kadam, the bank has provided essential infrastructural support to various Government schools, Anganwadis, Orphanages etc. Ujjivan is committed to addressing the academic needs of transgender individuals, intellectually challenged students besides the children enrolled in government schools.

Key Initiatives

  • Bridging the Digital Gap with Pi Jam Foundation: We’ve partnered with Pi Jam Foundation to train 1,000 teachers in Satara and Sangli districts, creating 100 model teachers who will impart digital literacy to over 30,000 students. Our program focuses on critical thinking, analytical skills, and logical reasoning.
  • Supporting Children with Intellectual Disabilities through Maithree: Our ongoing collaboration with Maithree in Chennai has enabled us to support 48 children with life skills and basic academic education. In FY 2023-24, 16 students graduated to vocational training, with others advancing in their learning journeys.
  • Scholarships for Transgender Students with Buddy4Study Foundation: In line with our commitment to diversity, equity, and inclusion, we have provided educational scholarships to 32 transgender students in partnership with Buddy4Study Foundation.
  • Equal Education Access with ALSOC and Government Schools: We support 600 underprivileged boys through ALSOC in Kolkata and have provided essential educational aids to government schools in West Bengal, Nagpur, and Nashik, including boards, benches, and projectors.

Promoting Sports for Holistic Development

Understanding the importance of sports in overall development, we actively promote athletic engagement among children in government schools and NGOs. Our initiatives include:

 

  • Sponsorship with Mary Kom Boxing Foundation: Supporting 10 boxing athletes with training sponsorship, competition participation, and nutritional needs.
  • Equipment Donations to Orphanages: We provided sports equipment to children at Lotus Petal Foundation in Sohna and Sanmathi Balanikethan in Pune. A large-scale sports competition involving 100+ volunteers was held at Sanmathi, fostering sportsmanship and camaraderie among the kids.

 

Through these initiatives, Ujjivan goes beyond providing education and support—we empower communities and nurture future leaders, uplifting lives through learning and holistic development.
