Why Women Empowerment Is the Need of the Hour
Even in 2025, millions of women across India continue to battle deep-rooted gender inequality. They are denied access to education, financial freedom, and basic rights — simply because they are women.
According to UN Women and Niti Aayog, only 18% of women in India are part of the formal workforce, and 1 in 3 women face some form of domestic violence. These numbers aren’t just statistics — they are a mirror of the daily struggles of millions of Indian women.
Empowering women is not a luxury — it’s a national necessity. When women are educated, skilled, and self-reliant, entire communities thrive. That’s where Nirmala Foundation steps in — as a leading Women Empowerment NGO in India dedicated to rewriting these narratives.

Legal Awareness and Rights Education
We conduct legal workshops to help women:

- Fight against domestic violence
- Get access to government schemes
- Learn about workplace safety and harassment redressal
These sessions often become turning points in women’s lives, giving them both the knowledge and the courage to protect themselves and others.
Support Against Domestic Violence
Nirmala Foundation runs a safe space model — a network of volunteers, counselors, and legal experts who offer help to victims of domestic abuse. From confidential support to court assistance, we walk with them every step of the way.
Education & Community Leadership
We empower adolescent girls and women to become peer educators, health volunteers, and community leaders. Through awareness campaigns and outreach drives, our women not only transform themselves — they become catalysts of change for others.
Real Stories of Empowered Women
Empowerment becomes real when it changes lives. Here are some inspiring transformations made possible through your support.
Seema – From Silence to Self-Reliance
Seema was once too shy to raise her voice. After completing our sewing course, she now runs her own tailoring shop in Mustafabad. Today, she trains other women and manages her own clients with pride.
Ayesha – Art with Purpose
Ayesha had a passion for Mehndi but no income. With our training, she turned her hobby into a profession. She now earns enough to support her siblings’ education while bringing joy to brides on their special days.
Nalini – Survivor Turned Advocate
Nalini escaped a violent marriage with the help of our legal aid cell. Today, she’s not only safe — she speaks at our awareness events, inspiring other women to take a stand.
