About Us

Rooted in rights, education, and community progress.

At the Iraadeh Education Foundation, we are driven by a steadfast commitment to safeguarding the rights and interests of all citizens, with a special focus on the empowerment of women and children.

Our mission is inspired by the lifelong work of our founder's father, the late Mohammed Ishaq Ilmi, a distinguished journalist and former editor of the Urdu daily Siasat Jadid in Kanpur. A staunch advocate of girls' education, he instilled in his daughters the belief that they could be agents of change in society. This legacy is at the heart of everything we do.

“Education is not the preparation for life, education is life itself.”
