She Speaks – Aambra Foundation

Help Us to support all Adolescent Girls & Women who need your help.

Ways to partner with us

Welcome to SheSpeaks.

She Speaks is a flagship project of the Aambra Foundation. It was conceptualized to give a voice to issues relating to women and celebrate their strength and success. We invite accomplished and inspiring men and women from different walks of life to share their stories of success, struggle and challenges and present case studies.

Across centuries in India, a woman has been the fulcrum of her family. However, her voice was stifled due to socio-economic, politico-religious and other factors. She Speaks endeavours to give a voice to the inspiring and aspiring women.

SheSpeaks is pleased to announce that a helpline project has been initiated with the aim of providing support services to adolescent girls and women facing mental distress. Our helpline services are also designed to cater to the specific needs of women with special needs and older women, in order to further encourage and facilitate inclusivity of women from all aspects of life to voice their concerns.

On 15th August, we launched a toll free helpline to extend emotional as well as mental counselling for adolscent girls and women in distress
