Our Story

Our journey began with the establishment of Diamond Girls High School in Malegaon, providing formal education to girls who otherwise would have limited access to schooling. Recognizing the need for vocational training, we expanded our programs to include skill development initiatives under government schemes.

"Education is the passport to the future, for tomorrow belongs to those who prepare for it today." - Malcolm X

Today, we operate 18 government projects across Maharashtra with an annual turnover of ₹2 crore, supported by a dedicated team of 53 professionals. Our work has been recognized by the Ministry of Skill Development and Entrepreneurship, National Skill Development Corporation, and NITI Aayog.
