Every educated girl today, lays the
foundation for a better tomorrow
Mother-daughter relationships is the closest of all human
relationships, and what makes this relationship undeniably unique is a mother’s
exceptional determination and convictionto make her daughter’s life more
meaningful andrewarding. In line with this thought, Clinic Plus launched their ‘M se
Maa, Maa se Mazbooti’ campaign; reflecting how every daughter gets her
strength from her mother and how a motherplays a huge role in her development.With
the launch of Clinic Plus’s Scholarship
programme 2014, the brand takesanother step towards its commitment toempowermothers
by providing scholarship for their daughters’ educationand help themfulfill
their dreams.
The initiative mainly aims at enabling mothers to help their
daughters study and become a force of strength for them in the future. As per the
Educate Girls NGO report, for every 100 girls enrolling in schools in rural
India - only 1 reachesclass 12.Another report states that women who complete
their secondary education contribute more (15%) to the nation’s economy than
men (11%). Keeping these statistics in mind, Clinic Plus aims to reach out to
girls in these rural schools and provide them with secondary education, which in
turn will reduce the dropout rate and aid them to build a better future.
Through this programme, a girl can enroll from a particular standard
(5thto the 12th) and Clinic Plus willtake care of her entire education till the
twelfth standard. Now it’s every mother’s responsibility to take the
opportunity and help her daughter completesecondary education.

believes at making a difference at the ground level and contribute to the
consumers’ lives. Clinic Plus is the third most trusted hair care brand in the
country, we want to further nurture this relationship by enabling every mother
