📅 Target 2030

Our Core Initiatives
Headway Foundation was incepted with the thought of empowering the youth to pursue their dreams and lead a thriving life. We believe that no single focus area can deliver that aspiration. Therefore, the organization looks at it as holistic development of society. We believe that the holistic development of society is only possible when each individual irrespective of their gender, religion, caste or anyother categorization, gets a quality education, aspired skills, and opportunities to earn a respectable living within a safe and secure environment to thrive. With that thought, the Foundation has identified4 focus areas of impact.
QUALITY EDUCATION
Headway Foundation empowers marginalized students through free education, coaching, career guidance, library access, and financial support.
SKILLING & LIVELIHOOD
Headway Foundation empowered skilled Tanda weavers by forming a cooperative, boosting income, market access, training, and enabling nationwide sales.
GENDER EQUALITY
Headway Foundation empowers marginalized Tanda women through SHGs, awareness sessions, peer support, education, and initiatives on health and independence.

Why We Exist ?
Headway Foundation was born out of a shared dream by a few young individuals from Tanda who, after receiving quality education, returned to uplift their own community. Recognising the challenges they faced growing up—lack of access, guidance, and opportunities—they came together in 2011 to offer free coaching and career guidance to students from marginalised backgrounds.
Formally registered in 2017 under the Societies Registration Act, Headway Foundation has evolved into a dynamic civil society organisation. What began as small coaching sessions has transformed into a robust model of community-based development.
Today, Headway aligns its work with the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), with a strong focus on education, skill development, health, and empowerment. Through its various programs, the Foundation has reached over 2,000 individuals and families across Ambedkar Nagar—building not just opportunities, but hope.
Testimonial
What People Think
Real words from real beneficiaries: see the impact through their journeys.
The teachers at the foundation helped me clear my doubts and assisted in building conceptual understanding of subjects like Mathematics and Science. It helped me clear the entrances of various institutions. I got admission in JMI +2 and after that, I completed my engineering degree and now currently working as a design engineer in one of the reputed MNC in Gurgaon.
This coaching is so foundational. It paved the first step toward my dreams. It made me capable of making career strategies better than others. The best thing about the coaching was that it encouraged and motivated me to dream big through interaction with personalities who were already successful in their careers.
I come from a very poor and Dalit family, my father works as a labourer. In the year 2020, I was selected in Aligarh Muslim University, Banaras Hindu University and UP Polytechnic. It would have been impossible for boy like me to get admission in a place like this without the support of the Foundation Coaching and Guidance Cell. All the teachers of Foundation Coaching are very hardworking and only after studying from them I got the goal of becoming something in life. Wherever I have reached today, all the credit goes to the foundation coaching and their teachers
