The project of imparting computer-based training at Mahesh Foundation started in 2018 with the goal of making digital learning accessible to students that are medically challenged, and to members belonging to vulnerable and underprivileged communities. With the inauguration of this newly set up computer classrooms, 1500+ learners will benefit from the initiative.
Linde has been sponsoring various initiatives of Mahesh Foundation for the past 9 years and has been a key partner in the foundation’s growth journey.

This Skill Center will train underprivileged girls and women on basic computer usage, tailoring, art and craft, and communication and soft skills to help them become self-sustained in their life. A team of volunteers from Linde visited the Mahesh Foundation for the inauguration ceremony of the computer classrooms.
