Home Cooked Meals Program (2022 – 2024)

India occupies the largest undernourished population in the world. To fight and prevent malnutrition and hunger, the Help Empower team started a chapter of the Youth Ambassador Program in Mumbai, India in June 2022. We recruited a team of local volunteers to distribute healthy home-cooked meals every weekend to children living in the urban slums of Mumbai.

The team cooked and distributed healthy nutritious meals to over 150 children in Mumbai slums during the summer from June – Aug 2022 and is continuing the same each month.

Back-to-School Program (2022 – 2023)

We distributed books, stationary, and other school supplies to over 500 underprivileged students studying in Manekji Gajshar Municipal School, Mumbai, Radhadevi Goenka Mahila Mahavidyalaya, Akola, India, and Girls, Inc. in Worcester, MA. Our drives have helped female students living in disadvantaged communities go back to school with confidence and strength for the new year.

Holiday Book Drive for Girls, Inc. (2022 – 2024)

Over the holiday season, we teamed up with Girls Inc. to help provide books for their annual Stocking Up For Books Party. Through their projects, they work to encourage girls to be strong, smart, and bold and discover these strengths through the work of literacy and education.
