Ride like a localite

Explore with empowerment

Chennai

“SPEED Trust Chennai empowers women through ground-breaking initiatives. In 2004, it became India’s first organization to train women as auto-rickshaw drivers, helping them earn significantly more than typical slum households. The trust also provides vocational training in crafting bags and kits, with products sold globally via the fair-trade organization Baladarshan. Profits from these sales support various community projects, fostering financial independence. By breaking gender stereotypes and creating sustainable livelihoods, SPEED Trust transforms the lives of marginalized women in Chennai, enabling them to achieve self-sufficiency and dignity. Their efforts continue to drive social change and empowerment at the grassroots level.”

Ride like a Local offers a unique experience of Chennai while supporting women’s empowerment. Hop into a Tuk Tuk driven by a local woman trained by SPEED Trust, exploring the city's vibrant landmarks. Conclude the tour at SPEED Trust’s office to witness their inspiring journey first-hand.
