Welcome to Jagruthi

At Jagruthi, our mission is to empower marginalized tribal and rural communities by addressing the root causes of poverty, inequality, and social exclusion. We envision a world where every individual, regardless of their background, has access to the resources, knowledge, and opportunities needed to live a life of dignity, security, and purpose. For over three decades, we have dedicated ourselves to breaking down the barriers of isolation and powerlessness that keep the most vulnerable populations trapped in cycles of poverty and despair.

Our mission extends beyond providing immediate relief; we focus on sustainable, community-led solutions that empower individuals and families to take control of their lives. By advocating for women’s empowerment, child rights, safe motherhood, and access to quality education, we aim to create an environment where every woman and child can thrive. Recognizing the devastating impact of HIV/AIDS on families and communities, we also provide care and support to children and families affected by the disease, ensuring they have the resources and hope to rebuild their lives.

As stewards of natural resources, we are deeply committed to promoting sustainable agriculture, watershed development, and community-based tank management to enhance food security and resilience against climate change. We believe that sustainable development begins with the empowerment of local communities, enabling them to harness their resources, protect their environment, and build a better future for themselves and future generations.

At the heart of our mission lies the belief in equity and inclusion. We work tirelessly to ensure that marginalized tribal and rural populations have equal access to opportunities and services. Through social mobilization, capacity-building, and partnerships with government and civil society, we create pathways for individuals to achieve food security, economic stability, and social well-being. Our efforts are not limited to alleviating immediate hardships; we aim to transform systemic inequalities and build a society where all voices are heard, and every person can realize their full potential.
