Founded in 2009, CEQUIN is dedicated to advancing gender equity by transforming the culture that allows violence and discrimination. We work through a preventive, intersectional, rights-based and sports for development approach to address structural violence, and shape gender attitudes and beliefs before they solidify into norms. To address gender based violence, we believe that the need of the hour is empowerment, which sees people as agents of change; rather than just passive beneficiaries of health and development programmes. Our work collectivises girls and women, in partnership with men, boys, key community stakeholders including educational institutes, civil society organisations, local representatives, funders, think tanks, government, media and the private sector – to build gender equitable communities and unleash transformational change.

Your donation will directly support CEQUIN’s programmes and initiatives running across different locations in Delhi, Haryana & Rajasthan. This includes funding programmatic activities, capacity building, providing critical resources for participants ( like football kits for girls and technical support like laptops and desktops), resources for community outreach and advocacy. Every contribution helps us create safer, more equitable communities.

CEQUIN is committed to transparency and accountability. Being a non-profit organisation, CEQUIN is legally bound to audit all its accounts by both internal as well as external auditors. We regularly publish reports on our activities and financials in our annual reports, detailing how funds are used.Each donation we receive is a testament to your trust in us. We honour that trust by upholding the highest standards of accountability and transparency in all our operations.

At CEQUIN, we are deeply committed to ensuring that your contributions make a high impact. We prioritise allocating the bulk of our funds, 84% directly to our programmes, 13% to support administrative expenses and the rest (3%), for the organisation’s growth to fundraising and resource mobilisation. It is our ongoing endeavour to ensure that the maximum possible proportion goes towards programmes. The administrative cost proportion is well below the sector average in India. This careful stewardship of your donations reflects our dedication to maximising the effectiveness of every rupee
