In addition to these programs, it actively engages in initiatives that spark meaningful conversations around education empowerment. One such event is Saajhi Samajh, which provides a platform to discuss and collaborate on innovative approaches to strengthen education systems.

At Tech Mahindra Foundation, empowering Persons with Disabilities (PwDs) is a core focus area, driven by its commitment to fostering inclusion and enabling everyone to Rise. It strives to ensure that PwDs have access to social inclusion and equal employment opportunities, paving the way for a brighter future. This mission is achieved through two flagship disability programs:

* ARISE+: All Round Improvement in School Education for Children with Disabilities, focusing on enhancing educational outcomes.
* SMART+: Skills-for-Market Training for Persons with Disabilities, aimed at equipping them with employable skills for sustainable livelihoods.

The Foundation upholds a mandate that 10% of all its beneficiaries are Persons with Disabilities, reflecting its dedication to creating an equitable and inclusive society.

COVID-19 relief efforts have been relentless, prioritizing support for the most affected groups, including healthcare workers, security personnel, sanitation workers, migrant laborers, farmers, the transgender community, elderly individuals, daily wage earners, and persons with disabilities.

As the second wave of the pandemic surged with greater intensity, the foundation's efforts evolved to address the critical needs of hospitals. It provided essential medical infrastructure such as oxygen cylinders, concentrators, beds, cardiac monitors, and other vital supplies. Additionally, it ramped up training programs to upskill healthcare professionals and frontline workers, ensuring they were equipped to handle the escalating demands of the crisis.
