Empowering Identity. Embracing Equality.
Let's Join With Us!
Aardhanari, inspired by the divine blend of Shiva and Shakti, symbolizes the unity of masculine and feminine energies—a powerful representation of balance, inclusion, and identity. At Aasya Foundation, Aardhanari is our dedicated initiative to empower the transgender community, ensuring they are treated with dignity, respect, and equal opportunity.
Our Mission
To promote social acceptance, economic independence, and equal rights for transgender individuals through holistic support programs, advocacy, and community engagement.
Core Areas of Focus
Aardhanari is not a cause—it’s a celebration of being, becoming, and belonging.

Livelihood & Skill Development
Training and upskilling in areas such as tailoring, beauty care, hospitality, digital literacy, and entrepreneurship—opening doors to dignified employment.
Shelter & Safety
Safe spaces and emergency support for transgender individuals facing displacement, discrimination, or violence.
Education & Awareness
Providing access to basic and higher education, as well as conducting sensitization programs in schools, workplaces, and communities to break stigma and promote inclusivity.
Legal Aid & Documentation Support
Helping with name/gender corrections in legal documents, identity proofs, and facilitating access to government schemes and benefits.
