QUOTES FROM TANISHKA WOMEN

“As a Sarpanch I had not worked for the upliftment of the village however the Tanishka Foundation gave me a new identity. I received support from other women and could help women access social security schemes which benefitted them in Bhargaon block of Jalgaon. Today I am the Corporator in Jalgaon and thanks to Tanishka for making me a part of the impactful movement of social change.”

Expanding the Tanishka Footprint
– The Mexico Story

The aim of Tanishka Foundation Mexico, a social program initiated via The Women’s Project(TWP) Foundation created by Elisa Salinas is to promote socio-economic transformation through women, giving them a place of honour and respect. It is a joint effort of Grupo Salinas, Fundacion Azteca and Kybernus in partnership with Sakal Media Group and Delivering Change Foundation. Delivering Change Foundation has partnered with Groupo Salinas in Mexico to launch the Tanishka Foundation which focuses on women’s dignity and the important role of taking women to the core of Nation Transformation.

The program has been initiated successfully with delegations from both DCF and TWP visiting each other’s respective countries to closely align themselves towards understanding how the Tanishka model can be replicated successfully in Mexico.
