Adharshila Trust

Adharshila is an NGO, based in the urban slum clusters of New Delhi (Kalkaji, Harkesh Nagar, Okhla, Sangam Vihar). Adharshila’s founders, Ms. Neena Jolly and Ms. Geeta Arora started the NGO in October 2004 with the aim of ensuring sustainable slum development.

We work for the upliftment of the underprivileged section of society by striving to empower and enable them, especially women, through our vocational training programs, social justice initiatives, advocating human rights, counseling and awareness workshops.
