ABOUT US
We are a group of high school students who aim to provide young girls with the tools to defend themselves, both mentally and physically, in threatening situations. Growing up in India, one of the top 3 countries with women-related crimes, we feel the need to protect girls from abusers, both known and unknown.
​
We understand that unfortunately, we cannot stop girls from being harmed, however, what we can do is equip ourselves with the necessary self-defense to preclude the situation from escalating. With Deffendo we aspire to empower girls with self-defense anytime anywhere.
