Programme held to celebrate mothers

Chennai A programme to celebrate women was held in Chennai on Saturday. As many as 40 women participated in the ‘Mom’s Day Out’ organised by Global Adjustments Foundation under the ChampionWoman initiative.

The women were mothers of girls under the Shakti Scholars scheme of the foundation, under which financial assistance was provided towards their college fees while also investing in their holistic development through a structured Life Leadership Programme. The programme equips young women with essential life skills, leadership capabilities, confidence, and the knowledge to navigate their personal, academic, and professional journeys, according to a press release.

The aim of Mom’s Day Out was to connect with the women behind every Shakti girl, so that her three-year college journey is supported equally at home and at college. Founder chair of ChampionWoman Ranjini Manian said, “The arrival of children makes us mothers, so we decided to celebrate the child within the mother on the occasion of Children’s Day.
