Citigroup

Citigroup believes that educating the next generation is key to economic development. They reach out to underprivileged children through primary education programmes implemented in partnership with their NGO partners. Citigroup has teamed up with Pratham in eight Indian cities to support the primary educational needs—with the aspiration of universalising primary education—of underprivileged children in urban slums. Economically underprivileged communities and slum pockets have been selected in each city. They support the community-based programmes in Zakhira and school-based programmes in Karolbagh. Citigroup has supported Pratham Delhi since 2005.
