Girl’s Education Scholarship Programme
Empowering young women in Goa to build their futures
The Foundation is committed to empowering young women in Goa by supporting those who aspire to build meaningful futures. The scholarship is not merit-based — it exists to ensure financial limitations never stand in the way of higher education and personal growth.
Message from the leadership
Carrying forward a legacy of dignity and hope
The Smt. Usha Madanlal Gupta Foundation was established to carry forward the values and vision of late Shri Madanlal Gupta, with leadership from the Gupta family. The Foundation honours his legacy of integrity, compassion, and service — through healthcare initiatives, education, financial assistance, and emotional support.
We, at UMGF, invite you to explore the opportunities available and join our vibrant community of achievers.
