The Foundation was started with the purpose of enabling underprivileged, unemployed youth to get employed. The project ‘Unnati’ is a 70 day vocational training program for the unemployed and economically backward youth with a job at the end of the training period. SUF has been harnessing the potential of the youth by moulding them into self-reliant and productive workforce for the country. SUF is mandated to replicate UNNATI project across India on a day scholar module. The Government of India – Ministry of Labour and Employment has also recognized SGBS Unnati Foundation as a Vocational training partner under National Skill Development Scheme.
