At the planet mars foundation, we believe that charity alone cannot solve problems like poverty, gender bias and illiteracy. We need a systematic and sustainable approach to address social problems and make real and long-lasting impact.
For us, the depth of impact on each beneficiary is far more important than mere numbers. Therefore, we ensure that the neediest girls find their way into PMF through a systematic screening process.
Currently, we are focusing on supporting girls from North Karnataka’s backward districts. Our timely intervention stops these girls from falling prey to child labour, domestic violence or early marriage; giving them their right to basic education, safety and health.

EDUCATION
Learning to excel
At PMF, we believe that educating the girl child is the best way to help her overcome her circumstances, societal hurdles and gender discrimination. Every girl at PMF attends regular government-aided school or college in the vicinity. We provide her with the required books, fees, uniform and stationary. Further, a qualified in-house tutor supports and monitors her learning outcome; a much-needed intervention considering her lack of early schooling and the absence of dedicated guardians to support her learning.
As a result of our systematic and holistic approach, many of our girls, who are first-time school-goers, have emerged toppers in their class. As a NGO dedicated to girl child education in India, we will continue to support every girl at PMF until she grows into an independent, educated and responsible adult.

WELL-BEING
Nurturing healthy, happy girls
We believe, physical health must be complemented by the mental and emotional wellbeing of children. After-school activities like sports, Karate, yoga, music and dance help the girls discover their strengths, while bonding with their peers. Many of our girls have won trophies at school, district and state levels in Karate, dance, elocution, sports and more.
Regular health checks are organized by qualified doctors at PMF, including dentists, ophthalmologists and pediatricians. Our in-house counsellor helps the girls overcome their limiting and challenging life circumstances and build self-worth. By treating them with respect and compassion, we help them grow as confident and self-assured individuals.
