BACKGROUND AND DETAILS
Lend A Hand India embeds its staff within the state department of education, so as to provide technical and project management support to state government efforts to offer vocational education opportunities to its students. Lend A Hand India’s staff works side by side with government staff to prepare a long-term strategic roadmap, draft funding proposals, and launch the initiative. This is at no cost to the government. JPMorgan Chase Foundation financial supports Lend A Hand India for this initiative. This is a three-way public-private partnership, where the nonprofit delivers technical and domain expertise while being funded by private capital and backed by the central and state governments’ policymaking power. This partnership currently impacts over 82,0000 students from 273 high schools across Delhi.
