iimpact Australia was established in 2013 to fund the education of the girl child in rural India. We are a small band of professionals, volunteering to raise donations from individuals and foundations. We are regulated by the Australian Charities & Not-for-Profits Commission and all your donations are tax deductible in Australia.
Mission
Our current mission is to mobilise and motivate non-school going girls, between the ages of 6 and 14. We focus on rural areas of India with significant gender gaps in literacy. We deliver educational services via a partnership with iimpact India.
Today there are over 1,700 iimpact Learning Centres operational in over 1,500 villages educating over 60,000 girls in 11 States: Rajasthan, Haryana, Uttar Pradesh, Jharkhand, Bihar, West Bengal, Orissa, Uttarakhand, Madhya Pradesh, Himachal Pradesh and Chattisgarh.
