The Wadhwani Ashoka Fellowship identifies and supports leading social entrepreneurs who are building non-profit organizations with innovative approaches to solving problems faced by the differently-abled.

Goal
To empower differently-abled individuals to live independent lives.

Strategy
Ashoka searches the world for extraordinary individuals with unprecedented ideas for change in their communities. Ashoka invests in these "social entrepreneurs" when no one else will, through stipends and professional services that allow "Ashoka Fellows" to focus full time on their ideas for leading social change in education and youth development, health care, environment, human rights, access to technology and economic development.

We are partnering with Ashoka, a global non-profit organization, to support social entrepreneurs working with the differently-abled people. In addition to the support provided by Ashoka, Wadhwani-Ashoka Fellows will have access to all our entrepreneurial development programs and resources.
