Who we are

Turning awareness into capability, and capability into independence.

FORHER Foundation is a service-oriented organisation focused on education, skill development, career readiness, women empowerment and community initiatives — because qualifications alone are not enough, and empowerment takes more than awareness.

  • Education creates awareness. Programmes for schools, colleges and communities — especially where access is limited.
  • Skills create capability. Practical, relevant, impact-oriented training that helps people realise their potential.
  • Opportunities create independence. Connecting institutions, corporates, healthcare organisations and community stakeholders.

Meet the founder
Ms. Sangeetha Palani
Founder & Managing Trustee

An experienced Human Resources professional, HR consultant, entrepreneur and social-impact leader with a strong commitment to people development and community empowerment.

With 15+ years in Human Resources — across recruitment, talent acquisition, employee engagement and organisational support — Ms. Sangeetha has worked with and advised several organisations on identifying talent and meeting their people-related needs. That experience gave her first-hand insight into the challenges students and young graduates face when moving from education to employment.

Driven by this vision, she established FORHER Foundation to bring together corporate understanding and community-focused initiatives. Throughout her professional and service journey she has received multiple awards and recognitions for her leadership, service and involvement in people-oriented initiatives.

“Education creates awareness, skills create capability, and opportunities create the pathway towards independence and sustainable growth.”
