Providing Every Child with the Essentials for Learning
The Education Support Program addresses barriers like lack of school supplies, hygiene, and financial constraints, which often lead to dropouts. Hope Kits: Provide essential school supplies, hygiene items, nutritious snacks, and weather-appropriate clothing to encourage attendance. Financial Support: Covers school and college fees for students who lack financial resources to continue their education. Skill Development: Focuses on spoken English and life skills to enhance confidence, communication, and employability. These initiatives empower children with the tools and motivation to pursue their dreams and build a brighter future.
मनRay Foundation’s Key Programs
Empowering Futures: Ensuring Every Child Has the Tools to Learn

- ✔ A personal hygiene kit
- ✔ Undergarments
- ✔ An educational kit (notebooks, stationery, etc.)
- ✔ A raincoat, sweater, and shoes
- ✔ A tiffin box, water bottle, and healthy snacks
- ✔ A set of new clothes
Menstrual Hygiene & Girls’ Education: Atmavishwas Project

- ✔ Distribute 'Maana' sanitary napkins, an in-house brand of breathable, good-quality pads
- ✔ Provide 90 sanitary pads and 5 panties per girl
- ✔ Conduct menstrual hygiene awareness workshops
- ✔ Have increased school attendance by 30% among girls
