Welcome to GEET Family
We are a 12A- and 80G-certified grassroots organisation committed to supporting girls from the most under-resourced communities through education, practical skills training, and holistic well-being.
Gender-based discrimination against girls remains deeply entrenched across all sections of Indian society. At GEET, we recognise that meaningful change begins when girls are not only able to stay in school, but are supported by their families, teachers, and communities throughout their journey.
By working through schools, investing in mothers as skill trainers, and creating emotional infrastructure for educators, we build stronger institutions that deliver long-term outcomes. Our model centres collaboration, sustainability, and community ownership: laying the foundation for resilient futures.

When girls learn, cycles of inequality begin to break — for good.
GEET’s Mission At A Glance
We exist so every adolescent girl in India can stay in school, access care, and step into self-defined pathways to financial independence.
What we’re building
We create multi-layered support systems—scholarships, skills labs, and emotional care spaces—that reduce absenteeism, expand livelihood options, and centre care inside every classroom.
10K+
Girls impacted alongside their mothers & teachers.
11
Deep partnerships with schools & community hubs.
Whole-of-system lens
Girls, caregivers, teachers, and school leaders are supported together so no one is left outside the change process.
Community ownership
We co-create with local partners, invest in mothers as experts, and strengthen public-school ecosystems.
Pathways to independence
Every programme keeps sight of the end goal: girls choosing their own futures with confidence and dignity.
Why This Work Matters
Talent is everywhere, support is not. GEET tackles the layered blockers that push girls out of classrooms long before graduation.
23M
girls drop out annually
Economic pressure
Household income shocks force families to prioritise short-term survival over girls' learning.
60%
women face IPV without education
Emotional strain
Teachers and caregivers carry invisible care work without support, accelerating burnout and disengagement.
28%
stay at primary level
Limited pathways
Girls rarely see dignified work models in their communities, making school feel detached from real life.
Girls drop out not because they lack ambition, but because the systems around them aren’t built to catch them. We intervene where the cracks are widest.
By keeping girls in school, supporting their mothers to earn, and giving teachers emotional infrastructure, we make sure resilience is shared—not shouldered alone.
A whole ecosystem approach
- • Scholarships that remove hidden schooling costs
- • Skills labs that turn mothers into paid trainers
- • Companion Collective circles that care for teachers
Change. Witnessed Firsthand.
"GEET has completely transformed what teaching means for us. They encouraged both students and teachers to think beyond textbooks—to innovate, to lead, and to believe that even girls from the most resource-constrained backgrounds deserve access to the same tools and opportunities as anyone else."
"GEET's support didn't just help us survive the pandemic—it gave our girls a fighting chance to continue learning when everything else felt uncertain. Their timely and thoughtful intervention created the foundation for a more resilient school."
"Before GEET, I had never worked outside my home. Becoming a teacher changed not just my financial situation, but how I saw myself. Today, I contribute to my family's income, support children who need steady care, and walk into every classroom with a sense of dignity and purpose I never thought possible."
Driving Positive Change for Vulnerable Girls
We work alongside schools, families, and teachers to ensure girls don't just enrol — they stay, learn, and thrive. Our model includes:
Funding girls' education
Scholarships cover tuition, transport, nutrition, and menstrual health, so attendance stays steady.
Training mothers
Mothers become paid trainers in skills labs, earning income while keeping daughters in school.
Supporting teachers' well-being
Companion Collective circles offer mental-health support so classrooms remain safe and caring.
Whole-of-person programming
Financial, emotional, and skills-based interventions work together to unlock long-term agency.
Beyond the First Day of School
Retention, care, and dignity—measured year after year with the schools, mothers, and donors who keep showing up.
Addressing the barriers girls face in accessing and completing education is not the work of one person or one organisation. It's a shared responsibility — a daily commitment held by mothers, teachers, school leaders, and local partners who show up every day for their girls.
The GEET Family brings together these everyday changemakers to build lasting solutions, one day, one girl, one school at a time.

A Year in School Shouldn't Be Out of Reach
For many girls, the barrier to education isn't ability, it's affordability. GEET's scholarships cover the essentials that make sustained schooling possible: fees, supplies, transport, and menstrual health.
Your contribution directly supports the continuation of her education when it's most at risk.
