Goal
The Wadhwani Grant Program aims to help thousands of disabled persons
gain productive employment over the next 10 years, both directly,
or indirectly through successful advocacy efforts.
Strategy
To do this, we are funding a group of non profit organizations that
will offer a full set of mutually reinforcing programs that provide
disabled people opportunities to start their own enterprises or
have opportunities to be gainfully employed. The members of this
network will be able to leverage each other’s knowledge and
resources to increase effectiveness.
We invest in projects or activities where an infusion of funds
will make a significant difference, either by increasing scale or
quality, or by launching a new effort.
If you are part of an non profit organization that shares our
vision, please contact us and if you are a non profit organization
