Our Story

Mahendra Singh Foundation Inc. is 501(c)3 Status Non-Profit Organization founded in 2015, by Ms. Monica Singh and Mr. Nikhil Singh. The foundation gets its name from their father, Late Mr. Mahendra Singh, who devoted his life to helping others. He stood tall and strong when his daughter was burned with acid. This gave her the courage to go on and pursue her goals and dreams. His unwavering support and desire to help those in need, are the legacies that will continue with this foundation.

The Mahendra Singh Foundation helps girls and women who are survivors of violence to overcome their obstacles, become self-sufficient and lead a path for local and global sustainable social and economic empowerment. For the survivors, MSF offers hope, support and guidance to help them achieve financial independence and assists in providing academic opportunities that foundationally include education on the UN Sustainable Development Goals. Through its alliances, MSF is committed to supporting the Decade of Action to achieve the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development.
