Empowering Women to Reach their Full Potential
The Didi Foundation empowers women through vocational education and skill development, helping them achieve financial independence and contribute to their families and communities.
Founded in 2013 with just five sewing machines, Didi Foundation has grown into a hub for women’s empowerment. Our vocational training programs have provided thousands of women with the skills to build better futures.
