GENESIS

In December 2002, the alumni batch of 1978 from Indian Institute of Management, Ahmedabad met for their 25th reunion at Ahmedabad. As the revelries subsided, one of the things that emerged from the reunion was the recurrent desire to do something socially meaningful. Thus was born IIMPACT – reflecting both the desire to make a positive impact and the IIM linkages of the founding members.

The registered society chose as its primary focus the education of girl children from socially and economically disadvantaged sections of society. There are many gaps in economic progress and many social causes that beg immediate support in a country like India. But perhaps none are as compelling as the lack of literacy and lack of social status among large numbers of girl children and women in general.
