Adopt a School Program
At Vidya Shakti for Girls Foundation, we believe education is the most powerful tool to uplift lives. In collaboration with Zandig Knowledge Management Foundation, our Adopt a School Program at Corporation School, Choolaimedu, Chennai, is creating real, measurable impact for underprivileged girls.
Our partnership with MAI School since 2023 has focused on nurturing aspirations, supporting academic journeys, and building skills that prepare girls for brighter futures.
Students at MAI School are actively utilizing the Technology Lab set up by Vidya Shakti. This lab has opened up new avenues for interactive learning and digital literacy, preparing the girls for a tech-enabled future.

Highlights of the Year 2023–24
24 MAI girls received the Vidya Shakti (VS) scholarship this year, providing critical financial support for their education
Out of these, 4 girls—Gopika, Sneha, Sujithra, and Sindhuja—successfully passed their 10th standard exams, with grades ranging from A+ to B+, demonstrating commendable academic achievement and resilience.
A dedicated WhatsApp group for MAI Vidya Shakti girls was launched in 2023 to encourage peer learning, mentorship, and a strong support network.
With the support of Vidya Shakti, a fully equipped Technology Lab was set up within MAI School. This initiative helps bridge the digital divide, especially for girls from under-resourced backgrounds.
Students regularly use the lab for e-learning, typing practice, and exposure to basic coding and online research.
Teachers are also trained to incorporate technology into their classroom instruction, making lessons more interactive and future-ready.
Communication Skills for Confidence
To nurture soft skills and enhance employability, we organized three batches of communication and spoken English training during the academic year.
These sessions focused on public speaking, vocabulary building, conversation skills, and confidence development.
The girls showed remarkable progress, often volunteering to lead group activities and speak in school functions.
When girls are educated, their countries become stronger and more prosperous
