Development

When one lives in the city and enjoys excellent health care at one’s beck and call, it is difficult to appreciate the hardships suffered by the poor in remote locations of India. SEWA Rural is an organization that aims at improving the lives of these very deprived people. From healthcare to vocational training, they have been providing holistic development to the needy in Gujarat for 33 years now, and even today, they continue to serve the poor with utmost enthusiasm.

The Bagariyas of Rajasthan are one of the poorest and least literate tribes in India. While they are barely eking out an existence, their children don't go to school, they have no electricity, or in fact, any facilities that make life easier. Most developmental schemes seem to have bypassed them. But we see here, how a little money and a lot of initiative, can have a large impact on people's lives.

CRY – Child Rights and You is an Indian organization that catalyses permanent, sustainable change in the lives of the nation’s neglected and marginalized children. We do so by rallying public resources in a movement towards getting children their due rights. We actively partner individuals and organizations to tackle issues that affect children and their families, at the root, and not address the symptoms alone.
