Meena's Journey to Education

Through our education support program, we provided her with a scholarship, school supplies, and after-school tutoring. Today, Meena is back in school, excelling in her studies, and dreams of becoming a teacher to help other children in her community.
Clean Water Transforms Alwar Village
The village of Rajgarh in Alwar district struggled with waterborne diseases due to contaminated water sources. Baba Vikas Samiti installed a community water purification system and trained local youth to maintain it. Within six months, cases of waterborne illnesses decreased by 70%, and children's school attendance improved significantly as they spent less time fetching water and more time studying.

A group of ten women from Bharatpur received training in pickle and papad making through our food processing initiative.
