First up, we plan to bring The Nudge Foundation, which is supported by Nandan Nilekani & Tata Trusts .They provide training and job opportunities for the youth through a 100 days residential program called “Program in Life Management”,conducted in their Whitefield Bangalore facility.
We request your support for mobilizing youth (men and women) in the age group between 18-30 years of age from low-income families.The 100-day residential program comes with a 100% job assistance in Bangalore with a strong foundation in Spoken English for the workplace, Computer Literacy, Financial Literacy, Employability and Life Skills. The vocational skills imparted include Driving, Sales, Beautician, and Plumbing.
