Together We Can Make A Difference
The Lighthouse Project is a not-for-profit organisation in Mumbai that connects working professionals and college students with children from under resourced communities, through one-on-one mentoring in a safe environment.
Most of these children are first generation learners and often lack a consistent, positive role model to guide them in their daily lives. Moreover, current education systems do not equip children with the necessary skills to ensure that they are job ready upon graduation.
Mentoring enables both our mentors and mentees to learn from each other and become socially conscious contributors to society.
Our Program
5 Year Model
Our 5-year model begins in Standard 10 with a focus on Life skills, Social skills, and Values. Our Junior College program provides hands-on support during this critical transition to college life. In the degree college phase, we guide mentees through key areas such as navigating life as an adult, preparing for internships and jobs, embracing volunteerism, and successfully transitioning from college to the workplace.
8 Locations in Mumbai
Currently we work with children from slum communities across Mumbai (Dadar, Cotton Green, Lower Parel, Khar, Andheri, Jogeshwari, Worli, Prabhadevi(Elphinstone Road).
One-on-one Mentoring
Our Mentors spend 3 hours a month with our Mentees over an 8-month period building their aspiration levels, developing their Life skills, Social skills, Values and exposing them to new opportunities, diverse perspectives, and real-world experiences that help shape their future paths.
