Introduction About Us
LEAD Forward India is an organization working with the marginalized sections of the society initiated in the late 90’s by Mr. Phillip W. Mock a retired military officer from the United States and a team of leaders.
It was established by Dr. G. Mathew in Tamil Nadu as a collective effort, having its registered office at Chengalpattu. The purpose of the organization is to educate rural poor and develop them as selfless servant leaders to help empower the community in return.
It has been striving hard for many years to provide good and quality education to the deserving poor students from all sections of the society particularly to the rural, poor and the Dalits. We are beginning to involve graduates in leadership, for empowerment and their own further leadership development.
