About the Program
The Mahindra EmpowerHer Scholarship Program 2025–26 emerges as a distinguished initiative of Mahindra & Mahindra Limited, created under the umbrella of its unwavering commitment to corporate social responsibility. At its heart, the programme seeks not merely to provide financial aid but to empower young girls, ensuring that their educational journeys are not blocked by financial hurdles.
Covering meritorious students from Class 9 to 12, as well as undergraduate and postgraduate courses in general disciplines, this scholarship aims to act both as a shield against economic hardship and a catalyst for personal advancement. The underlying message is profound yet simple: when a girl is given the means to sustain her education, she does not merely secure her own future, but strengthens the prospects of her family, her community, and society as a whole.
