Flex India is privileged as a Title Sponsor to Avtar Human Capital Trust (AHCT) – Project Puthri’s world-class event (Puthri Ilakku) that impacted thousands of young underprivileged girls. This sponsorship also hopefully will brighten their future prospects through technological skills development and career for a diverse, equitable & inclusive workplace in India.

DEI is an important part of our flex strategy, the event was very well organized by showcasing Puthri’s 5 years impressive work and entire days program was professionally executed by your team, all staff were helpful and dedicated throughout the entire process.

launching Project MITR (Men Impacting Trust & Respect) for creating a new generation of Male allies and advocates for women counterparts in their future workplaces is really commendable. This will empower 10,000 adolescent boys to become empathetic ‘gender champions’ at the grass root level and will create inclusive and equitable workplaces towards a gender netural society.

The programme was very interesting and thought provoking. It was coined in such a manner that one would not miss even a second of the programme. The way it was organised, the ambience, the venue and the time was so wonderful and amazing. It really gave me a clear picture about how an organisation like Avtar and a Project like Puthri can change the lives of those school children in building confidence and trust in themselves and thereby act as a change maker in their life.

Doing the same for the past five years tirelessly even during the pandemic is really an appreciable work.

Being a part of project puthri for close to 5 years has been an experience of transformation, learning and growth. I was able to see it all come together on the five year celebrations of project puthri.

To see what I had always experienced in a small way, play out in a macro way during the puthri ilakku, touching different stake holders - be it the puthri scholars, the teachers, the corporates and the project implementers, all of whom came together for one great cause - education and career intentionality of children from government schools.

Ilakku, the recently concluded event of Project Puthri was visibly a grand event. While sitting in the huge hall packed with "Puthris", a flash back of past year celebrations ran through my mind, this year it stood grandeur. Fortunate were those invited Puthris who were part of this corporate event. Not every school going child gets an opportunity to attend such occasions. These Puthris got platform to showcase their talents, listen to speeches of industry stalwarts, interact with experienced people and a tasty buffet lunch. I, sitting there as an audience just wished that, collective efforts of many people should be well understood by their dear Puthris, and should land up well settled.
