Emilia Burton Trust has been founded in memory of Late Mrs. Maria Emilia Burton. Our goal is to reach out to people in need – women and children being our primary focus.

With special focus on women and children, we aim to enable poor and vulnerable groups to better their own situation by providing them with basic necessities.

We believe the way to empower women and girls is by promoting quality healthcare and education services and encouraging them to have long lasting objectives in their lives.

Discrimination against women, coupled with poverty in the society, cause women to lag behind in education, employment and healthcare. This further makes them prone to atrocious crimes such as immoral trafficking, dowry deaths, rape and molestation. Empowering them with education is, therefore, the right way to overcome poverty and social injustice.
