Building Futures, Transforming Lives
Icon Shikshan Prasark Sanstha, we are driven by a profound purpose: to empower individuals who face barriers in achieving their dreams. Founded by a businesswoman, a doctor, and an engineer, our NGO focuses on uplifting school and college dropouts, as well as homemakers, by providing them with the skills and knowledge they need to pursue their ambitions. Whether it’s starting their own businesses or securing jobs in their chosen fields, our goal is to help them attain financial independence and create a better future for their families.
Why Our Work Matters
Mumbai is a city of stark contrasts—a bustling financial hub and entertainment capital, but also home to widespread poverty. With nearly 42% of the city’s population living in slums, countless individuals lack access to education and opportunities to grow. At Icon Shikshan Prasark Sanstha, we believe that people can break free from these limitations with the right training, support, and encouragement. By equipping them with tools for success, we help them achieve their goals and transform not just their own lives, but their communities as well.
