Indian organization Bharatiya Foundation spearheaded by Mohit Kamboj introduces three significant social programs aimed at fostering empowerment, preserving dignity, and cultural rejuvenation
Mohit Kamboj Bharatiya Foundation Empowers Transgender Community
The Mohit Kamboj Bharatiya Foundation, a philanthropic organisation established by noted social activist Mohit Kamboj on May 10, 2019, has announced a significant initiative aimed at uplifting the transgender community in India. The Transgender Upliftment initiative focuses on providing postgraduate education opportunities, skill development programs, and incubation support to empower transgender individuals and enable them to gain meaningful employment.
This initiative forms part of a broader set of three landmark social programs launched by the Foundation. The other two initiatives aim to ensure dignity in death for unclaimed individuals and to restore culturally significant temples, with the ultimate goal of fostering inclusion and promoting communal harmony.
The Transgender Upliftment initiative seeks to address the economic and social barriers faced by transgender people in India. By providing access to higher education and skills training, the Foundation aims to help members of the transgender community achieve economic independence and social inclusion. While specific metrics of impact are not yet available, the comprehensive support structure indicates a transformative approach that could have a profound impact on the lives of many.
Mr. Mohit Kamboj, the founder of the Mohit Kamboj Bharatiya Foundation, emphasised the importance of every citizen feeling seen, respected, and empowered. He highlighted the Foundation's commitment to eliminating social discrimination and uplifting marginalised communities.
The Dignified Dead Bodies initiative, another component of the Foundation's work, ensures respectful last rites for unclaimed or neglected deceased individuals. This is achieved through collaboration with municipal corporations, the police department, and NGOs.
