How We’ve Been Making A Difference
Since our inception, GEF has worked with 271 total students. So far, 43 of these students have graduated, 131 are currently pursuing a degree in college, and 140 are studying in high school. We aim to induct 150 students annually.
We are focused on expanding our engagement across Maharashtra to more villages and students. These are our current areas of impact.
We work to keep our incoming classes diverse. The following is a breakdown of the gender and geographical background of our current college students.
Through our programming, we help counsel students towards certain career paths. This is an aptitude-based process, in which students take a test and then discuss with their mentors their best options. Here are the fields our students have been pursuing in college so far.
