Educate.
Empower.
Elevate.
MyHeti has been created to Educate girl scholars from Economically Weaker Section (EWS) background so as to Empower them to aspire for careers in the world of medicine, health and wellness. This is a humble attempt to Elevate those who have been denied access to a happier, healthier and prosperous life.
Educate
We provide partial financial aid to deserving scholars pursuing studies in medicine, nursing, allied health, wellness, and caregiving, with support paid directly to their colleges.
Empower
We equip every MyHeti Scholar with financial literacy, communication skills, leadership development, mentoring, and network support to become a confident, capable, and well-rounded professional.
Elevate
We inspire MyHeti Scholars to build meaningful careers, contribute positively to their workplaces and communities, and create a lasting impact on society.
Why the Nilgiris
The Nilgiris is home to many of our founding team members. Having been educated in Coonoor, our founder, Dr. Ringo Rajagopal, is a third-generation Nilgiris resident; his family has lived here for over seven decades. An entrepreneur and teacher, his dream of starting MyHeti was to give back to the place that shaped him and gave him his roots.
MyHeti is also a humble attempt to honor Vajreswari Rajagopal’s dream of becoming a doctor. Economic and social circumstances prevented this dream from becoming a reality.
MyHeti is the resilient dedication to one belief: no girl child should be denied the chance to pursue a career as noble and compassionate as healthcare and wellness.
In Sanskrit, heti is a ray of light, and “Vajra” the thunderbolt weapon. MyHeti means my ray of light: my weapon against adversity, to overcome every obstacle and reach the goal of a lifetime. The young girl in the yellow dress symbolizes the prosperity and auspiciousness she brings to this noble endeavor. It is our resolve that every MyHeti scholar will aspire to make this world a happier, healthier and prosperous place.
Why MyHeti
Ready for the global job market
Healthcare careers increasingly cross borders, and clear, confident communication opens those doors. MyHeti Scholars can take ProComm, a professional communication program from LeanHCM, at a deeply discounted fee.
We are also glad to bring ProComm, on preferential terms, to nursing colleges and healthcare training institutions that want to strengthen their students' communication skills.
