OUR PROGRAMS

Education

Scholarship Programs

The Elizabeth Mayne Foundation is committed to transforming the lives of marginalized children and women through comprehensive scholarship programs. Designed to support students and women living in our safe shelter, these scholarships provide access to quality education, school supplies, uniforms and holistic development opportunities. Beyond academics, we offer emotional support, mentorship, and skill-building initiatives to empower each child to pursue their dreams and become self-reliant, confident individuals. By bridging the gap between vulnerability and opportunity, our program aims to break the cycle of poverty and open doors to a brighter, more secure future.

Bridge Education Program to Mainstream Children into the regular system

The Bridge Education Program is a transitional learning initiative designed to prepare out-of-school, marginalized, or academically lagging children for integration into the formal education system. Through accelerated learning modules, life skills, and personalized academic support, the program helps children bridge gaps in foundational knowledge and adapt to structured classroom environments. The ultimate goal is to ensure that every child, regardless of background, can access and succeed in mainstream schooling.

Conveyance

Offering safe, reliable transport for children from the foundation, enabling them to access government schools that offer education in multiple languages. By removing travel barriers it ensures regular attendance and supports inclusive, language-friendly learning.

Safe Home And Boarding

Safe shelter for orphans and semi-orphaned children

Our NGO is dedicated to creating safe and nurturing shelters for marginalized, orphaned, and semi orphaned children across India. We understand the immense challenges faced by children living in poverty, destitution and social exclusion. Beyond providing a secure place to live, we offer nutritious meals and pure safe drinking water (which is a scarcity in Bengaluru), to ensure their physical well being and emotional support to help heal and build resilience. Personalized tutoring is also offered to empower them through education.


We firmly believe that every child, regardless of their race, religion or background, deserves equal opportunities to grow, learn, and thrive. Our mission is to break the cycle of disadvantage by fostering an inclusive environment where these vulnerable children can feel valued, supported, and hopeful about their future.


Working Women's Hostel

Our Working Women’s Hostel is dedicated to providing safe and affordable accommodation for marginalised and economically disadvantaged young women who have recently embarked on their careers. With a secure roof over their heads and nutritious meals included, these women can focus fully on their professional growth without the stress of worrying about living conditions, food, or personal safety.


To ensure accessibility, we seek only a very minimal support cost making it easier for these women to maintain stability as they build their futures. Our hostel not only offers a safe place to stay but also fosters an environment of support and empowerment for women striving to achieve their dreams.
