  Education is the key factor that decides our quality of life in future and therefore it holds a lot of value for everyone. Education and skill development are something on which every organization should focus. Promoting education in India should be in every corporate’s to-do list. Seed CSR is actively promoting this cause among private firms and implementing CSR programs to benefit every needy person. There are many firms who are associated with us and invest in CSR activities. Education sector is considered one of the best favored sectors when it comes to contributions by private firms and corporations under their corporate social responsibility. This sector has always attracted huge inflow of funds from big businesses and continues to grow more. Seed CSR has hired skilled professionals that help to implement effective CSR programs for various firms.

According to a survey, India has one of the lowest percentages of women employees and have very low Corporate Gender Gap ratio. This demands every company to come forward and invest m
