NEW DELHI (India SCR): Axalta (AXTA), a leading global coatings company, continues its commitment to supporting education and holistic development in India. Through its longstanding partnership with the Pardada Pardadi Educational Society (PPES), Axalta’s support this year will benefit 140 girls in the Bulandshahr district of Uttar Pradesh, India.
For nearly two decades, Axalta has partnered with PPES, a nonprofit organization dedicated to transforming the lives of underprivileged girls through quality education and community-based programs that help break the cycle of poverty and gender inequality. Axalta’s contribution will help ensure that the students have access to educational opportunities and the support services needed to thrive academically and confidence needed to build independent futures.
“At Axalta, we believe education, particularly STEM education, is one of the most powerful drivers of social mobility and gender equality. Through our financial support of 140 girls at PPES, we are investing in the next generation of leaders, innovators, and professionals. We are proud to continue our longstanding partnership with PPES and support its mission of empowering girls through education,” said Dr. Prameela Susarla, Vice President and Managing Director, Axalta India.
Axalta’s support extends beyond classroom learning. Through the PPES program, the sponsored girl students benefit from school education, books, uniforms, meals, transportation, healthcare, sports, STEM learning opportunities, leadership development, and personality-building initiatives. The program supports students from kindergarten through college, helping them build successful careers and become economically independent.
“We are deeply grateful to Axalta for its unwavering support. Sponsoring the students is not only changing lives today but creating opportunities for future generations of girls,” said a PPES representative.
Together, Axalta and PPES remain committed to creating lasting social impact by expanding educational opportunities, promoting gender equality, and empowering girls to build brighter futures for themselves, their families, and their communities.
